چکیده

An 8-year-old girl had acute onset of blurred vision, proptosis, and lateral and vertical gaze palsies on the right. CT and MR examinations showed an expansile mass involving the greater wing of the right sphenoid bone. Pathologic analysis of the surgical specimen revealed a capillary hemangioma.

The rim enhanced uniformly, and there was inhomogeneous enhancement of the bulk of the lesion.
