ABSTRACT

Hemangioma is the most common, localized, benign vascular tumor of the head and neck. Cavernous hemangioma is about one-tenth as common as capillary hemangioma, although congenital, is often not apparent at birth and may undergo a rapid growth phase during the first 6 months of life. Cavernous hemangioma is much less likely to undergo spontaneous involution and tends to have a more aggressive course, and may result in complications related to its location. The authors experienced a case of cavernous hemangioma formed huge hematoma of right face, so report this case with a review of literatures.
