Case Reports

Aneurysmal atherosclerosis of the inferior labial artery with segmental arteriectomy



JH Quinn

A case of aneurysmal atherosclerosis of the inferior labial artery has been presented in which a segmental arteriectomy was performed to eliminate the possibility of involuntary trauma to the area, which could produce considerable hemorrhage. Psychologicall, the patient felt better by knowing that the mass was completely removed. Atherosclerosis should be considered when masses are found in the lips in elderly patients. It is thought that this lesion is common but has not been reported in the past.
