[Chronic lip ulcer. Apropos of a case of a superficial large diameter artery of the lower lip]
Abstract
A case of chronic ulcer of the lower lip, which persisted for three years and resisted all locals treatments, is presented. Recovery was achieved with excision. The specimen was examined macroscopically, and showed a prominent inferior labial artery or calibre-persistent artery, an uncommon entity. Patient-literature was reviewed.
