Cavernous hemangioma of the breast is a rare benign vascular tumor. It is usually diagnosed as non-palpable mass during imaging examination, incidentally. Common sonographic finding of the breast hemangioma is a superficially located, oval shape, circumscribed margin mass. But the appearance of breast hemangioma is variable and it can be difficult to diagnose in preoperatively. Here, we report a 68-year-old female case with palpable breast mass and increased size on follow up ultrasonography.

Intraosseous hemangioma is a rare, benign vascular tumor of endothelial origin. It accounts for fewer than 1% of all hemangiomas, and very rarely occurs in the face. Intraosseous hemangioma usually presents as an asymptomatic lesion, but symptoms can occur due to the mass effect. The authors describe a case of intraosseous hemangioma of the zygoma with a review of the relevant literature. A 44-year-old man presented with a chief complaint of painless swelling on the left zygomatic region that had been slowly growing for the past year. On physical examination, a hard, non-movable mass in a deep layer was palpated. On computed tomography performed to evaluate its layers and extent, trabeculation was found inside the mass, but the lack of destruction of the surrounding bone suggested that the mass was benign. Complete surgical excision was performed under local anesthesia. After complete excision of the mass, slight erosions remained on the cortical bone of the zygoma, but because it was small enough not to cause a facial deformity such as depression or asymmetry, no additional reconstructive procedure was performed. There were no symptoms or recurrence during a 8-month follow-up period.

Hemangioma can present difficult management problems to the oral & maxillofacial surgeon when their removal is indicated. Cryosurgery has also been employed for the treatment of hemangiomas and offers several advantages over the other treatment methods. This is a case report of hemangioma which was treated by cryosurgery. The cryosurgery technique has proved to be painless, bloodless and safe. The healing process was completed at 4 weeks postoperatively with minimal invisible scar.

Hemangiomas in the esophagus comprise less than 3% of all benign esophageal neoplasms. They are frequently small and easily treated with resection via either endoscopy or thoracotomy. We report a cavernous hemangioma occurred in the distal esophagus successfully treated with circumferential myomectomy.

Hemangiomas that arise in cervical esophagus are extremely rare, representing 3.3% of all benign esophageal tumors. Although endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and potassium titanyl phosphate/yttrium aluminum garnet (KTP/YAG) laser therapy have been used with success for small tumors, the safety and efficacy in the case of large tumors remains uncertain. We report the successful resection of cervical esophageal hemangioma through a cervical esophagotomy in a patient with thyroid cancer who needed a cervical collar incision.

Capillary hemangiomas are common soft tissue tumors on the skin or mucosa of the head and neck in the early childhood, but very rare in the neuraxis. A 47-year-old man presented with one month history of back pain on the lower thoracic area, radiating pain to both legs, and hypesthesia below 17 dermatome. Thoracic spine MRI showed $1{\times}1.3{\times}1.5\;cm$, well-defined intradural mass at T6-7 disc space level, which showed isointensity to spinal cord on T1, heterogeneous isointensity on T2-weighted images, and homogeneous strong enhancement. The patient underwent T6-7 total laminotomy, complete tumor removal and laminoplasty. Histologically, the mass showed a capsulated nodular lesion composed of capillary-sized vascular channels, which were tightly packed into nodules separated by fibrous septa. These features were consistent with capillary hemangioma.

Infantile hepatic hemangioma, the most common vascular tumor of the liver in infancy, can occur with acute postnatal liver and congestive heart failure. Nevertheless, its course is often benign, and many children can be diagnosed and treated without surgical intervention. The distinction from malignant diseases is not always easy and it not clear whether invasive procedures for diagnosis and therapy should be performed. Here we report our experiences in our Center for Pediatric Liver Disease and postulate that large studies are needed to avoid unnecessary invasive procedures for these patients in the future.

We reported a patient with a large pedunculated cavernous hemangioma located beneath inferomedial border of the scapular bone and the trapezius muscle checked by ultrasonography before and after the operation. In ultrasonographic finding, the peduncle was difficult to be visualized preoperatively due to acoustic shadowing.

Vascular tumors in the breast are rare, and most can be classified as being either angiosarcomas or hemangiomas. Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that are usually identified incidentally. Here, we are reporting on a case of a complex hemangioma of the breast, and describing the mammography, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings for this patient.

Vertebral hemangiomas are rarely symptomatic and have been treated by surgical managementsin patients with symptoms. A case of symptomatic vertebral hemangioma which was treated by radiotherapy successfully is presented.
