Intramuscular hemangiomas (IMH) are accounting for approximately 1% of all cases and the muscles of extremities are the most common sites. Because of scarcity and variable clinical features of these tumors, we decided to report a case of IMH in the upper lip mucosa..Case Report: The patient was a 54-year-old male that was referred to our clinic for swelling of upper lip mucosa and face asymmetry. The lesion was excised. The histological study revealed an IMH.. Surgical excision might be an effective approach in IMH of upper lip.
