RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate an alternative, safe and aesthetically acceptable method of management of orofacial haemangioma. METHOD: The patient was 19-year-old Jamaican female with a disfiguring orofacial haemangiomatous lesion of the upper lip and left cheek. Copper wire was implanted in the haemangiomatous area following surgery to partially remove the lesion from each site. The copper wire was left in place for one month (upper lip) and 19 days (left buccal mucosa) before removal. The use of percutaneous copper needles to induce therapeutic coagulation in cavernous haemangiomas is not new and this was the basis for this procedure. RESULTS: The outcome of the surgical procedure was satisfactory to the patient, her parents and her communmity. CONCLUSION: Despite the various treatment options that are available for large cavernous haemangiomas, the management of this case, with copper wire implantation was very successful. The procedure is simple and is without major risk or complication.(Au)
