dc.description.abstractTwo patients were admitted in the surgical unit of Mymensingh Medical college Hospital on September 2005 & April 2006. The first case was a lady of 18 years presented with sudden huge enlargement of tongue & lower lip for 07 days resulting difficulty in deglutition & respiration. Since childhood she noticed multiple elevated bluish spots over the tongue, cheek & lips. The second case was a young man of 20 years presented with multiple diffuse swelling of lips, left side of face, cheek, lower eyelid since birth, which was gradually increasing in size. Colour Doppler evaluation of the lesions in both the cases revealed features suggestive of haemangioma. Bilateral external carotid artery ligation by skin crease incision at the level of upper border of thyroid cartilage was done in both the cases. In first case, tongue size reduced back to oral cavity in post operative period. After 04 weeks of operation tongue size became almost normal with only multiple bluish residual swelling. In second case, the swelling size gradually reduced in post operative period. Both the patients are under regular follow up.en_US
