Capillary hemangioma of the tracheobronchial tree is an extremely rare benign tumor in adults, especially those located in the bronchus. Characteristics and treatment of capillary hemangiomas of adult tracheobronchial trees have not been well known. We present a 61-year-old man with hemoptysis, which was caused by a small tiny nodule in the left lingular segmental bronchus. The nodule was removed by a forcep biopsy, via flexible bronchoscopy, and it was revealed to be capillary hemangioma. A small isolated endobronchial capillary hemangioma can be treated with excisional forcep biopsy, but a risk of massive bleeding should not be overlooked.

모세혈관종은 소아에서 가장 흔한 혈관종양으로 기관에서 발생되는 경우는 가끔 보고되고 있으나, 기관지에 발생하는 경우는 매우 드물다. 본원에서는 좌측 주기관지에 모세혈관종이 있고, 이로 인해 좌측 폐의 심한 폐기종이 유발된 생후 4개월된 환아에 대해 좌측 주기관지 소매절제술을 성공적으로 치험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

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.

Capillary hemangioma of the trachea is an extremely rare benign tumor in adults. We present the case of a 28-year-old woman with hemoptysis owing to a tumor of the proximal trachea. The tumor was removed by rigid bronchoscopy. The resulting specimens showed capillary hemangioma without any signs of malignant transformation. This presentation is the first case in Korea. Although tracheal capillary hemangioma is a rare disease, we should consider it as a possible cause of hemoptysis in the young adult.

Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a type of benign vascular tumor. It arises from vascular endothelial cells and contains capillaries arranged in a lobular pattern. In the head and neck, the most common presenting location of LCH is the lips, and presentation in the larynx is very rare. LCH might not be distinct from granuloma in macroscopic views. We report a 71-year-old female with LCH of the larynx that was totally resected via laryngeal microsurgery with a CO₂ laser and briefly review the literature.

Purpose: Lobular capillary hemangioma is a vascular tumor that commonly occurs as a cutaneous lesion. Intravenous pyogenic granuloma is a rare form of lobular capillary hemangioma that usually occurs in the veins of the neck and the upper extremities. Methods: A 41-year-old man presented with 3 months history of nodules on the left temporal area and these lesions were clinically mistaken for a typical lipoma or epidermal cyst, but the nodules appeared unusually vascular with sentinel veins on excision. Results: On the histopathologic examination, the excised tissue was observed as an intraluminal polypoid mass, which was attached to the vein via a fibrovascular stalk and capillaries in a loose edematous fibromyxoid stroma, and so the lesions were confirmed to be intravenous pyogenic granuloma. At 6 months after excision, there has been no recurrence and the patient is asymptomatic. Conclusion: Intravenous pyogenic granuloma is a rare variant of lobular capillary hemangioma. This article describes the surgical and histopathological findings of treating pyrogenic granuloma.

The lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) was previously known to pyogenic granuloma and is benign vascular lesion which grows rapidly on skin and mucosa. It arises from whole body, but oral and nasal cavities are most predilection sites in the head and neck area. The laryngeal LCH looks like a granulomatous lesion of posterior glottis and its common etiology are tracheal intubation and laryngopharyngeal reflux disease etc. The LCH in larynx can cause blood tinged sputum and lump sense. The lesions refractory to medical therapy or causing dyspnea may require surgical excision. A 74-year-old man who presented gradually aggravated dyspnea, lump sensation and hoarseness of one month came to our hospital. The stroboscopic examination revealed large well-margined glottic mass. It was excised with $CO_2$ laser and finally diagnosed as LCH. We present a rare unique case of glottic LCH with a review of literatures.

Hemangiomas are relatively common in the head and neck region, but their occurrence in the temporal bone are extremely rare. The hemangioma of the external auditory canal (EAC) is a rare otologic entity as only 22 cases of hemangioma of the EAC have been reported worldwide. Here we report a patient presenting with pulsatile tinnitus, which turned out to be caused by capillary hemangioma arising from the posterior medial portion of external auditory canal touching the tympanic membrane. Surgical excision of the tumor was successful. The clinical manifestations and management of benign vascular lesions of the EAC are discussed with a review of literature.

혈관종은 혈관의 증식에 의해 발생하는 양성 종양으로 유아와 어린이에서 호발한다. 대부분 진성종양으로 보다는 과오종(hamartoma)으로 보며 구강내 호발부위는 입술 혀, 협점막, 구개부 등이다. 임상소견은 편평하거나 융기된 적청색 병소로 보통 단발성이다. 조직학적 소견을 통해 모세혈관성(capillary), 해면상(cavernous), 혼합성(mixed), 경화성(sclerosing) 등으로 분류되며 확진된다. 본 증례는 6세 남자 환아가 치은에 뭐가 났다는 것을 주소로 전남대학교 병원 소아치과에 내원하였다. 임상검사 결과 #62, 63 부위의 부착치은에 딸기모양 종물(mass)이 관찰되었다. 조직검사 시행 결과 모세혈관종으로 확진되었으며 외과적 절제로 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다. 혈관종은 재발이 드물며 악성전환이 없지만 출혈 경향이 높으므로 임상적 시술시 주의가 요구된다.

Laryngeal hemangioma occurs mostly in infantile patients and infantile hemangiomas can be frequently seen in the subglottic area. So, respiratory distress is a main symptom in this entity. But adult hemangiomas are rare and can be seen in different locations such as in epiglottis, aryepiglottic fold, arytenoids and false and true vocal folds. Authors experienced a case of mixed hemangioma at the right aryepiglottic fold in a 42 years-old-man who was presented with snoring, throat foreign body sense for 3 months. So, we report this case with a review of the literature.
