Abstract
A case of an hemangioma of the mandible in a 53-yr-old female patient is pr esented. The lesion was removed, and no atypia or mitotic cells were found. The excision was curative, and the overall prognosis was excellent. A diff erential diagnosis of radiolucent periapical lesions of the mandibular symp hysis is presented.
