Congenital hemangioma (CH) is a fully formed benign vascular tumor at the time of birth and do not proliferate in postnatal life. CH must be differentiated from infantile hemangioma. CH has three subtypes that are recognized based on their natural history: Rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma (RICH), non-involuting congenital hemangioma (NICH), and partially involuting congenital hemangioma (PICH). It is important to distinguish RICH from NICH because RICH spontaneously regresses but NICH does not. Herein, we report two patients diagnosed with RICH and NICH, respectively. We presented the clinical features as well as ultrasonographic and histologic findings to distinguish congenital from infantile hemangioma.

Hepatic hemangioma is the most frequently occurring benign tumor of the liver. Hepatic hemangioma rupture is a rare phenomenon, which can lead to life-threatening conditions. Here, we report a case of hepatic hemangioma rupture caused by blunt trauma. Explorative laparotomy was performed due to unstable vital signs and abdominal massive hemoperitoneum revealed on computed tomography. We detected arterial bleeding from a hepatic hemangioma and performed primary suture of the liver and postoperative angiographic embolization.

We evaluated the scintigraphic findings of sonographically atypical hemangioma, that is, a hypoechoic or heterogeneously hypoechoic nodule which contains hypoechoic areas more than 40% of the volume, and compared it with those of sonographically typical hemangioma in 26 patients with 31 nodules. Sonographically atypical hemangioma were 13 in 11 patients and sonographically typical hemangioma were 18 the 15 patients. Dynamic blood flow, planar and SPECT blood pool imaging was performed. In atypical hemangioma, increased blood pool activity was seen in 11 of 13 nodules on SPECT and in 10 of 13 nodules on planar image and increased blood flow was seen in 4 of 13 nodules on dynamic blood flow study. No significant difference in detecting increased blood pool activity between sonographically atypical and typical hemangioma. In conclusion, $^{99m}Tc-red$ blood cell SPECT is as useful in diagnosis of sonographically atypical hemangioma as in typical hemangioma and can be used as a confirmatory or complementary study.

Purpose: Hemangioma of the breast is an infrequent finding and usually encountered incidentally when checking for other disease. Most of hemangiomas of the breast are asymptomatic, not palpable perilobular type. Cavernous hemangioma of the breast is rare and only a few reports about this type of lesion are present. No example has been reported about reconstruction of the breast after resection of large cavernous hemangioma. Methods: We report here a case of immediate breast reconstruction using a Becker implant after subcutaneous mastectomy for a large cavernous hemangioma involving almost entire breast. Results: Symmetry is well maintained after 3 years without deformity or recurrence. Conclusion: The clinical prognosis of breast cavernous hemangioma is good after total excision and reconstruction.

The sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is rare, benign neoplasms, which are usually solitary, Althoughh their histologic apperances are distinct and well-defined, their histogenesis is uncertain. We experienced a typical lesion of pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma clinically and histologically, which was removed from the right lobe of 64-year-old female. We disccused histogenesis, microscopic feature and progress of the sclerosing hemangioma.

Hemangioma is one of the most common benign neoplasm, which occurs about 50% in head and neck region, but laryngeal hemangioma is relatively rare. Hemangioma occurred in larynx can be treated by surgical removal, cryosurgery, and steroid injection. Transoral CO2 laser micorsurgery has been known as useful method for the treatment of laryngeal hemangioma. We have experienced a 54-years old male patient of hemangioma originated in arytenoid area. This mass was removed via transoral approach with 'en bloc' resection by CO2 laser. We report this case regarding the treatment and prognosis of laryngeal hemangioma with review of literatures.

Dumbbell-shaped spinal extradural cavernous hemangioma is rare. The differential diagnosis of dumbbell-shaped spinal tumors based on magnetic resonance imaging includes schwannoma and lymphoma. Here, we report a dumbbell-shaped spinal extradural cavernous hemangioma with intrathoracic growth on T2-3 in a 64-year-old man complaining of right side infrascapular area back pain with no neurologic deficit. The cavernous hemangioma was resected through combined video-assisted thoracoscopy and laminectomy without a fusion procedure. The patient had tolerable operative wound pain with no neurologic deficit after surgery. Based on magnetic resonance imaging findings and a review of the literature, we discuss cavernous hemangioma among the differential diagnosis of paravertebral dumbbell-shaped spinal tumors and the importance of complete resection.

A spinal epidural hemangioma is rare. In this case, a 51 year-old female patient had low back pain and right thigh numbness. She was initially misdiagnosed as having a ruptured disc with possible sequestration of granulation tissue formation due to the limited number of spinal epidural hemangiomas and little-known radiological findings. Because there are no effective diagnostic tools to verify the hemangioma, more effort should be put into preoperative imaging tests to avoid misdiagnosis and poor decisions).

Hemangioma of the larynx is generally classified into adult and infantile form. More common infantile form usually arises on subglottic portiion and may cause respiratory distress. Adult form is rare and arises on vocal cord or above. Vocal cord hemangioma was rarely reported in the medical literature. Since Kimmelman et al reported vocal hemangioma in 1979 first, there are four cases of vocal hemangioma reported in medical literature. Recently, we experienced a case of vocal cord hemangioma and successfully removed it with micro-laryngeal surgery. Hence we report this case with review of literatures.

Hemangioma is one of the most common congenital tumors in the region of the face and neck. Although histologically benign, these facial masses are clinically malignant for their deforming and inexorable growth, especially in so-called 'cavernous hemangioma'. Carvenous hemangioma is the most common primary tumor occurring in the adult orbit. This tumor has symptoms that characteristically develop over several years with slowly progressive proptosis, eyeball deviation, hyperopia, diplopia and optic nerve compression. Today, hemangiomas are being treated by various methods; steroids, electrocoagulation, injection of sclerosing agent, cryotherapy, radiation therapy, laser therapy, and surgical treatment, etc. In principle, surgical approaches to the orbit must provide maximum safety and optimal visualization. We have experienced a case of large cavernous hemangioma in the orbit inferolaterally. The surgical treatment of tumor was achieved by the bicoronal approach combined with inferomedial and inferolateral orbitotomy. This surgical approach allows better visualization of the tumor and greater protection of essential anatomic structures. We obtained satisfactory results in terms of aesthetic and functional consideration. We present our case with a brief review of the literature related to orbital cavernous hemangioma.
