Lymphangiectasias, or acquired lymphangiomas, are rare in the oral cavity, more typically occurring on the skin or genital area, and to our knowledge have not been reported previously in association with Crohn's disease. Lymphangiectasias can occur at any age and develop secondary to chronic obstruction of lymphatics. This differentiates them from congenital lymphangiomas which are congenital malformations of the lymphatic system. We present two cases of oral lymphangiectasias associated with Crohn's disease, one of which was treated successfully with cryotherapy.
