Case report identifies a colonic hemangioma leading to massive hemorrhage risk, highlighting intervention awareness.
Hemangioma of the large intestine is a rare condition. Although such lesions do not present a risk of malignant transformation, they are associated with a potential for massive hemorrhage. Therefore, it is imperative to maintain a high index of suspicion for such lesions and to be cognizant of any interventional procedure that may result in excessive bleeding. This report presents the case of a patient who was admitted to the medical facility, where a hemangioma in the transverse colon was identified and subsequently excised without complications.Cite this article as: Moral K, Kaymaz E, Kabaçam G. “A rare cause of colonic polipoid lesion–colonic hemangioma”, Diagn Interv Endosc, 4, 0115, 2025. doi: 10.5152/DiagnIntervEndosc.2025.25115.
