It typically presents as a bluish, dome\u2010shaped swelling smaller than 1\u2009cm on the posterior alveolar ridge of the mandible or\/and maxilla, that allows it to be diagnosed clinically. Most previously reported cases of alveolar lymphangioma report spontaneous resolution, and biopsy is seldom performed unless the lesion becomes symptomatic or interferes with feeding.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Case Report<\/jats:title>We report a case of oral alveolar lymphangioma on the anterior maxillary alveolar ridge of an 11\u2010day\u2010old infant of non\u2010black descent. The lesion presented as a pedunculated, reddish, lobular mass in the anterior maxilla. Given its atypical presentation and the potential for feeding difficulties, an excisional biopsy was performed. The diagnosis was confirmed histologically through biopsy and supported by immunohistochemical staining.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusion<\/jats:title>This case expands the understanding of alveolar lymphangioma by reporting it in a non\u2010Black neonate with an unusual location and appearance, emphasising the need for excisional biopsy to rule out other potential oral lesions, especially neoplasms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ipd.13309","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,15]],"date-time":"2025-03-15T00:15:37Z","timestamp":1741997737000},"page":"932-935","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Alveolar Lymphangioma in Neonate: A Case Report With Immune Profile"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"35","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7639-725X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad Aiman bin Mohd","family":"Nizar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences, Faculty of Dentistry University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"},{"name":"Department of Craniofacial Diagnostic and Biosciences, Faculty of Dentistry Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Malaysia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5887-2448","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Benedict","family":"Seo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences, Faculty of Dentistry University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haizal M.","family":"Hussaini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences, Faculty of Dentistry University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brendan","family":"Young","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dental and Oral Health Services Wellington Hospital Wellington New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alison M.","family":"Rich","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences, Faculty of Dentistry University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms23042358"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/hed.26854"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.adaj.2023.08.009"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","first-page":"231","article-title":"Multiple Lymphangiomas of the Alveolar Ridge in a Neonate: Case Study","volume":"8","author":"Wilson S.","year":"1986","journal-title":"Pediatric Dentistry"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00383\u2010003\u20100983\u20108"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/ipd.13309","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,8]],"date-time":"2025-08-08T04:11:24Z","timestamp":1754626284000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/ipd.13309"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,14]]},"references-count":5,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/ipd.13309"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/ipd.13309","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0960-7439","1365-263X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0960-7439","type":"print"},{"value":"1365-263X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,14]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-10-16","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-03-06","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-03-14","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
