Abstract

A port-wine stain is a type of non-neoplastic hamartomatous malformation of capillary blood vessels, resulting from ectatic capillaries present from birth. Lobular capillary hemangioma is a form of capillary hemangioma that occurs from hamartomatous malformation of capillaries. In our report, we discuss the rare case of both port-wine stain and capillary haemangioma on the gingiva in a 22- year-old young male.
