| Abstract: | Intramuscular cavernous hemagiomas represent <1% of all hemangiomas and consist of benign proliferations of blood vessels. Typical presentation is an enlarging painful soft-tissue mass without cutaneous changes. Intramuscular cavernous hemangiomas do not undergo spontaneous regression and may be locally destructive because pressure is exerted on neighboring structures. Phleboliths on radiograph are a specific finding for cavernous hemangioma. Definitive treatment of this condition is surgical excision. |
