Abstract: | The benign vascular tumors of bone represent a diverse group of tumors that can present with a broad spectrum of clinical
signs and symptoms. They can also present a significant diagnostic challenge due to their widely variable radiographic imaging
and histologic features. Some of the tumors manifest as clearly benign lesions with tissue-specific diagnostic imaging features,
while others have non-specific imaging features that may simulate malignant neoplasm. This article will provide a review of
the nomenclature and the characteristic radiographic and pathologic features of the benign vascular lesions of bone. The information
will aid in improving our diagnostic accuracy and enhance our understanding of the biologic potential of this diverse group
of osseous lesions.
