Spindle cell hemangioma may warrant consideration of large-vein connections in children; extends sparse pediatric reports but leaves management questions open.
Case Report (n=1)
The diagnosis of spindle cell hemangioma is supported by typical histologic features and the intraoperative finding of an association with a large vessel.
Coras et al. (2003) conducted a case report in Spindle cell hemangioma (n=1). Excision of vascular tumor was evaluated on Histologic and immunohistochemical features. Excision of a vascular tumor in an 11-year-old boy revealed a vascular connection to the great saphenous vein, with histologic examination consistent with spindle cell hemangioma.
