Venous lake is in senyl hemangioma fan 'e lippen. It is typysk in sêfte, blauwe bult, feroarsake troch fergrutsen lytse ieren. It ferskynt normaal allinnich en fielt net dreech as it oanreitsje wurdt. It komt faak foar op dielen fan it gesicht en by minsken dy't in soad sinne krije. In 46-jierrige man kaam binnen mei in blauwe knobbeltsje op 'e ûnderlip dy't al 8 moannen groeide. It begon lyts en waard mei de tiid grutter. Hy sei dat hy it gebiet net ferwûne hie. Hy hie sûnder reden of lytse ferwûnings gjin bloeden ûnderfûn. Doe't de dokter him ûndersocht, fûnen se in inkele blauwe bult op syn ûnderlip dy't sêft en maklik te komprimearjen wie. De dokter behannele him mei kryoterapy mei floeibere stikstof, en befriest de lesion foar 10 sekonden tagelyk mei in lytse marzje der omhinne. Se diene dizze behanneling elke twa wiken. Nei 12 wiken wie der wat ferbettering.
A venous lake, sometimes referred to as senile hemangioma of the lips is usually a solitary, non-indurated, soft, compressible, blue papule occurring due to dilatation of venules. It is commonly found on sun-exposed surfaces of the face and ears. A 46 year old male patient presented with an 8 month history of a single, painless, bluish swelling over the lower lip which began as a pea sized lesion and gradually increased to the present size. Patient strongly denied any history of trauma at the site. No history of bleeding spontaneously or following minimal trauma could be elicited. On physical examination, a single, violaceous, soft, compressible, non-indurated, non-pulsatile papule was present on the lower lip. Patient was treated with cryotherapy with application of liquid nitrogen by dipstick method with one 10-second freeze-thaw cycle with a 1-mm margin. This was done at biweekly intervals. Some improvement was obtained following 12 weeks of therapy.
