ABSTRACT
Lymphatic malformation is a congenital abnormality of the lymphatic system, which manifests frequently at birth or before 2 years of age. Lymphatic malformations are classified as macrocystic or microcystic. Microcystic lesions typically occur above the level of mylohyoid muscle and need conservative treatment rather than surgical resection because of the high rate of incomplete excision and recurrence. We report our experience with two cases of radiofrequency ablation of lymphatic malformation in the oral cavity recently seen in our practice.
