Deskripsi
Bean syndrome or blue rubber bleb syndrome is a rare disorder of vascular channels with mucocutaneous manifestations. The clinical severity varies among patients from being totally symptom free to fatal bleeding resulting in anemia. As the histopathologic findings are not pathognomonic, diagnosis is usually made from the clinical presentation, though the imaging techniques reveal extension of the lesion. We report an asymptomatic case of blue rubber bleb syndrome who reported for dental treatment with oral and cutaneous manifestations.
