Case Report and Literature Review}, journal={Rize Tıp Dergisi}, volume={1}, pages={18–30}, year={2024}, author={Rakıcı, Sema and Çınar, Yunus}, keywords={Lip Localized Lymphangioma, Radiotherapy, Higher Dose Radiotherapy}, abstract={Abstract Lymphangiomas are developmental malformations that occur as benign tumors of the lymphatic channels. They occur very early in life and mostly prefer the head and neck region. In this case, we present a 21-year-old male patient with predominantly lower lip hemangioma from birth. Despite repeated surgical procedures and cryotherapy, growth continued and could only be controlled with external radiotherapy. However, the doses of radiotherapy described so far for the treatment of these lesions seem inadequate for the control large lesions. We had to beam 3 times to check this case. We found that an average doses of 54-56 Gy (50-60 Gy) recommended for the control of some benign vascular diseases can be used in these cases.}, number={1}, publisher={Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Üniversitesi}
