Abstract: | We report a cavernous haemangioma in the left cavernous sinus. This lesions very rarely occurs in this site and is difficult
to diagnose correctly preoperatively. CT, angiography and MRI permit differentiation of the cavernous haemangioma from other
tumours in this region and thereby contribute to a better surgical approach. The radiological features of cavernous haemangioma
reported in the literature are summarised.
