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 wall, may be erroneously diagnosed as myxomas. Cardiac hemangioma is a rare disease; furthermore, a tumor arising from the LA wall and misconceived as a myxoma is extremely rare. We removed a mass misdiagnosed as a myxoma; it was pathologically confirmed to be a cardiac capillary hemangioma. Therefore, we report a rare case of a cardiac hemangioma misconceived as a myxoma; the tumor was removed successfully.

The etiology of laryngeal hemangioma is unclear, and it is classified into infant and adult types. The former is capillary hemangioma and relatively common, the latter is cavernous type and very rare. The adult laryngeal hemangioma mainly occurs in supraglottis and glottis. A 75-year-old man came to our clinic with a voice change that started four months ago. The laryngoscopic finding showed that the surface of oval-shaped mass is covered with turbid exudates. We performed the laryngeal microsurgery with CO₂ laser. The mass was pathologically proven as cavernous hemangioma. We report a very rare and didactic case with review of relevant literature.

Intravenous pyogenic granuloma, commonly known as intravenous lobular capillary hemangioma, is a rare benign tumor of the vein. It rarely occurs in the neck, and its character is not enough to diagnosis clinically. It could be diagnosed with preoperative radiologic examinations such as ultrasound and computed tomography and typical pathologic findings that demonstrate lobules of multiple capillaries lined with flattened endothelial cells admixed with fibromyxoid stroma. The authors report a case of a 32-year-old male who presented with a palpable neck mass for one month with a review of the literature. He was successfully treated with resection, including the tumor and normal external jugular vein, without any complications.

Pyogenic granuloma is one of the benign vascular neoplasm. The nomenclature is misnomer because pyogenic granuloma is not related to infection and granuloma. It represent histopathologically lobular capillary hemangioma. It is most commonly occurred on skin followed by oral cavity such as gingiva, lip, tongue and buccal mucosa. Herein, we report a extremely rare case of pyogenic granuloma which was developed on larynx of a 81 year-old male with review of literature.

Vascular malformations are structural abnormalities that are thought to result from errors in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis during embryogenesis. Vascular malformations of the scalp present unique management challenges due to aesthetic and functional implications. This review examines the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and management techniques for six common types of vascular malformations of the face and scalp : infantile hemangioma, capillary malformations, venous malformations, lymphatic malformations, arteriovenous malformations, and arteriovenous fistulas. These lesions range from common to rare, and have very different natural histories and management paradigms. There has been increasing understanding of the molecular pathways that are altered in association with these vascular lesions and these molecular targets may represent novel strategies of treating lesions that have historically been approached from a structural perspective only.

Pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is a rare disease of unknown etiology that is characterized by nodules composed of infiltrating capillary blood vessels. Herein, we describe a case of a PCH-like lesion that was detected by chest computed tomography. Transthoracic needle aspiration resulted in life-threatening hemorrhage. The patient was followed for seven years. He remained in good health and a follow up image showed little interval change.

심장에 발생하는 혈관종은 매우 드문 양성 종양이다. 본원에서는 상복부 및 흉부 통증을 주고로 내원한 65세 여자 환자에서 시행한 전산화 단층 촬영상 심낭 압전과 함께 우심방 종괴를 발견하고 수술절제를 시행하여 조직 검사상 유두상 내피세포 증식증을 가지고 있는 혈관종을 발견하였다. 이에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Non-lymphoid mesenchymal neoplasms of salivary gland origin are rare, accounting for 1.4% of major salivary gland tumors. Of this group 30% were hemangiomas. Hemangiomas are the most common benign tumors in children, but are rare in old ages. 90% of hemangiomas arise in the first three decades of life. Hemangiomas are classified as capillary(including juvenile type), cavernous, or mixed in type. Salivary gland hemangioma is more common in the parotid(90%) and extremely rare in submandibular gland. We present two adult patients, 69 and 60 years of age, who were referred for palpable mass in the parotid area and submandibular area, respectively. After surgical removal of the lesion, histopathologic examination showed characteristic feature of cavernous hemangioma. The rarity of such a lesion in these locations in old ages have prompted this case report.

Vascular anomalies are common birthmarks. A eight-month-old male infant had a small size, bright red swelling on the lower lip since birth. On cutaneous examination there was a small brightly erythematous, lobulated, soft plaque on the left side of the lower lip of $10{\times}8{\times}5$ mm. Ultrasonogram examination revealed the lesion and confirmed the diagnosis of capillary hemangioma. The decision to initiate treatment is based on many factors, including size, location and risks and benefits of the proposal therapy. Systemic corticosteroids are decided to prevent the scarring and deforming. Prednisolone was given at a dose of 2 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks followed by tapering for 6 weeks for treatment. After eight weeks there was 80% reduction in the size of the lesion and the left lower lip almost completely cleared without intraoral bleeding. Furthermore, intervention by way of systemic steroids, laser therapy or surgical debulking is appropriate and safe in a select group of patients presenting with a proliferating hemangioma. This report describes a case that was sucessfully treated by systemic steroid therapy for hemangima in intraoral region.
