Lymphatic malformations are a rare pathology that presents a highly variable clinical expression. Intraorally, it mainly affects the dorsum of the tongue. The objective of this work is to present a case of lymphatic malformation in an atypical location. A 20-year-old male who attended the clinic for multiple vesicular lesion in attached gingiva, asymptomatic and of unknown evolution. Removal of the lesion and subsequent histological analysis were performed, which showed a microcystic lymphatic vascular lesion. Immunohistochemistry for D2-40 was performed, which corroborated the lymphatic origin of the lesion. At 6 months, no recurrence of the lesion was recognized. Clinicians should include lymphatic malformations in the differential diagnosis of multiple vesicular lesions. Knowing the oral manifestations of this entity is essential for its proper diagnosis and clinical management. Gingiva, oral lymphatic malformation, diagnosis.

Beyond vessels: unraveling the impact of VEGFs on neuronal functions and structure.
J Biomed Sci

Neurons rely on the bloodstream for essential nutrients and oxygen, which is facilitated by an intricate coupling of the neuronal and vascular systems. Central to this neurovascular interaction is the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family, a group of secreted growth factors traditionally known for their roles in promoting endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and survival in the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems. However, emerging evidence shows that VEGFs also play indispensable roles in the nervous system, extending beyond their canonical angiogenic and lymphangiogenic functions.
