Lymphangiomas of the alveolar ridge in a neonate: report of case.
Two alveolar ridge lymphangiomas in a black neonate were identified. No case of neonatal lymphangioma in a non-black has been reported. The majority of treatments for lymphangiomas have been either surgical removal or allowing for spontaneous regression. Both treatments were tried in this case with equal success. The treatment of choice may be to allow for spontaneous regression with periodic monitoring, if the lesion is not endangering the child, thus avoiding surgery.
