Cavernous hemangioma, an uncommon, red-blue, brought up tumors

A Hemangioma is a congenital benign tumour or vascular malformation of endothelial cells (the cells that line blood vessels). Hemangioma is also known as Cavernous hemangioma and Strawberry nevus. About 30% of hemangiomas are present at birth. The Hemangioma leads to many complications also such as bleeding, visual abnormalities and psychosocial problems.

A cavernous hemangioma in the skin extends more deeply than a capillary hemangioma and is less likely to regress spontaneously. Cavernous malformations tend to grow because of repeated small hemorrhages, or leaking of blood around the abnormal tissue. Henderson reported an incidence of 4.3% among orbital neoplasms. Cavernous malformations range in size from less than one-quarter inch to the size of a small orange. They occur equally in men and women and have been found in people of almost all ages. Cavernous hemangiomas are the most common symptomatic vascular malformations (birthmark). These common birthmarks usually become symptomatic in older children or young adults, with bluish skin discoloration, local swelling, and pain.

Some of large head and neck venous malformations are associated with sinus pericranii and developmental intracranial venous anomalies. And not just all, cavernous hemangioma could rise in deep entire organ, a sample case is cavernous hemangioma in liver. In this case, revealed that the imaging describe of hepatic cavernous hemangioma spread among liver in other circumtances of this study. There are three main treatment options for cavernous malformations observation, surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery. Surgery is the most common treatment option when treatment is necessary. Sclerotherapy is generally considered less invasive and more effective treatment modality. Most patients (approximately 60-80%) benefit from sclerotherapy. Radiofrequency ablation for treatment of symptomatic low-flow vascular malformations. Radiofrequency ablation is commonly used for cancers of the liver, kidneys, lung and bone. Use of the carbon dioxide laser or yag laser is another modality for the surgeon faced with the task of tumor removal.
