Hemangiomas in the head and neck region, especially those that may impact the airway, require special attention perioperatively because of the potential for difficulties with airway management and bleeding control. This case report describes the management of a 31-year-old male with a large hemangioma of the tongue and pharynx undergoing surgical extraction of mandibular third molars under intubated general anesthesia. Despite taking precautions and avoiding traumatizing the hemangioma while securing the airway, massive bleeding occurred during the surgical extractions, which prompted emergent transfer for angiographic embolization and a stay in the intensive care unit until extubation.

Pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytoma is a rare benign neoplasm typically seen in middle-aged women. The exact preoperative diagnosis is quite challenging considering its nonspecific clinical and radiologic features along with complex histology. Moreover, obtaining an exact histopathological diagnosis can be difficult especially with the small biopsy specimens.

Introduction: Soft tissue hemangiomas are among the most prevalent soft tissue tumors and can pose diagnostic challenges due to their propensity to extend into various regions. In our case, imaging studies facilitated effective characterization of the mass, and timely intervention with sclerotherapy enabled adequate initial control of the lesion. Subsequently, medical management with propranolol and a second scheduled surgical intervention with sclerotherapy contributed to a reduction in the lesion size, alleviation of symptoms, and improvement in prognosis.

Kasabach-Merritt syndrome (KMS) is a coagulopathy characterized by thrombocytopenia and hypofibrinogenemia associated with large vascular tumors. KMS can lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation which, if not treated promptly, can be life-threatening. There are few reported cases of this syndrome and its evolution in pregnant women.

Article Synopsis
- Intraosseous hemangiomas are rare, benign tumors affecting bones, particularly the vertebrae and calvarium, which can cause complications like visual problems and deformities due to their slow growth.
- A case study of a 10-year-old girl with a recurring giant calvarial hemangioma demonstrated the use of proton beam therapy (PBT) after previous treatments failed, showing positive results.
- The patient tolerated the PBT well, with minor side effects, and after 14 months, there was a significant reduction in tumor size, suggesting PBT's potential as an effective treatment for difficult cases of hemangiomas in children.
