We describe a case of 2-month-old girl presented with more than 60 papules and nodules hemangiomas involving the skin sclera, endocanthion, lower lip, labium majus pudenda without visceral laboratory abnormality. A biopsy showed numerous scattered, clearly limited, irregular cellular lobules in dermis circumvoluted into capillaries comprising incomplete vessel walls, which was consistent diagno...

OBJECTIVES Infantile hemangiomas often are inapparent at birth and have a period of rapid growth during early infancy followed by gradual involution. More precise information on growth could help predict short-term outcomes and make decisions about when referral or intervention, if needed, should be initiated. The objective of this study was to describe growth characteristics of infantile heman...

Spindle cell hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor presenting as multifocal red or bluish nodules on the distal limbs. We present a 57-year-old woman with five years history of multiple, soft, violaceous nodules on her hands. Pathologic study indicated spindle cell hemangioma.

Cavernous hemangioma consists mainly of congenital vascular malformations present before birth and gradually increasing in size with skeletal growth. A small number of patients with cavernous hemangioma develop scoliosis, and surgical treatment for the scoliosis in such cases has not been reported to date. Here we report a 12-year-old male patient with severe progressive scoliosis due to a huge...

Cavernous hemangiomas are the most common type of benign liver tumor. Although these tumors are often asymptomatic, they can occur with an array of symptoms. The authors describe a case of a 51-year-old man who presented to the emergency department with a relentless cough, nausea, and abdominal pain. Results of a computed tomography scan suggested the patient had a giant cavernous hemangioma on...

Hemangioma in the nose and nasal sinuses is rare, particularly in the maxillary sinus. Differentiation of hemangioma from malignant tumors is important, because both may be accompanied by bone destruction. With regard to giant hemangioma, this type has a rich blood supply, and surgical treatment requires particular care due to the high risk of massive bleeding and obstructed field of view. Alth...

Hemangioma of the heart, presenting as a primary cardiac tumor is extremely rare; it accounts for approximately 2% of all primary resected heart tumors. In our patient, the tumor was located in the orifice of the right lower pulmonary vein. Few cases of cardiac hemangiomas have been reported to arise from the left atrial (LA) wall. Left atrial hemangiomas, especially those attached to the LA wa...

Mesenteric cavernous hemangioma is a very rare disease. Most patients with mesenteric cavernous hemangioma present with gastrointestinal symptoms, such as bleeding and obstruction (1). In this report, to our knowledg, we describe the first case of mesenteric cavernous hemangioma with urological symptoms (1, 2). A 66-year-old man with severe pain radiating toward his penis during urination visit...

Central hemangioma of the mandible and maxilla is extremely rare. Although the mucosal and soft tissue lesions are readily suspected by their clinical appearance, the intrabony lesions may be difficult to distinguish visually. The clinical and radiographic presentation is relatively nonspecific; therefore, a proper diagnosis has to be made. The management of central hemangioma is difficult beca...

patients of all ages and have a reported prevalence rate of 0.001-0.03% in autopsy series and a rate of 0.15% in echocardiac series (1). The majority of primary cardiac tumors are benign. The most common primary cardiac neoplasm is a myxoma, which accounts for approximately half of all cases. Other benign primary tumors include the papillary fibroelastoma, rhabdomyoma, fibroma, hemangioma, para...
