Resumo: This report describes an unusual case of venolymphatic malformation in the left mandibular angle of a 38-year-old male. The patient sought specialized attention due to a "facial growth upon physical exertion," present for 2 years, painless, and static. During periods of rest, there was no facial asymmetry, but exertion revealed a normochromic, elastic, well-defined volumetric increase in the left mandible. Initially, an ambulatory thermographic imaging was performed using an infrared thermography device, which showed a significant temperature alteration in that region after exertion. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed an infiltrative lesion in the left masseter muscle, with subcutaneous extension and possible venous origin. The clinical diagnosis of venolymphatic malformation was established, and the patient was referred for follow-up with a vascular surgeon, remaining stable for the past 12 months. This report suggests that infrared thermography may represent an important adjunct in the diagnosis of maxillofacial vascular lesions.
