Blue rubber bleb nevus is a rare entity consisting of distinctive angiomas in the skin and gastrointestinal tract, leading to occult or profound gastrointestinal bleeding and chronic anemia. The efficacy has been documented of systemic treatment with corticoids, interferon, vincristine, and, more recently, subcutaneous octreotide in the presence of active lesion proliferation or disseminated intravascular coagulation. A case of blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome with oral hemangiomas in a 24-year-old woman is reported. The surgical specimens were subjected to immunohistochemical study, which showed all of the hemangiomas to be in an inactive phase.
