Congenital intraosseous cavernous hemangioma of the skull: an unusual case

Makhdoomi Rumana et al. Pediatr Neurosurg. 2013.

Abstract

Intraosseous hemangiomas are benign vascular malformations mostly seen in the spine. They rarely occur in the skull. The usual age-group involved is the 2nd to 4th decades, and females outnumber males. We hereby report a rare case of congenital intraosseous cavernous hemangioma of the skull bone in a male infant. The patient underwent total excision of the lesion.
