Intraosseous hemangioma is a benign vascular neoplasm and seldom affects the mandible. The diagnosis is challenging owing to its unspecific clinical and radiographic findings. Treatment options in children should be elective based on their age, symptoms, and facial deformity. Herein a rare case of intraosseous hemangioma of the mandible in a 14-year-old female is presented.

A boy in his middle childhood presented with a gradually enlarging, mildly tender swelling in the left frontal region, noticed after minor trauma. Skull radiograph and non-enhanced CT revealed a diffuse sclerotic lesion involving the left frontal bone and overlying subcutaneous soft tissue, suggestive of an intraosseous haemangioma. Contrast-enhanced MRI showed an expansile, hypointense lesion in the frontal bone on the left side with enhancing extraosseous components and a small extra-axial cyst.

Intraosseous hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors predominantly occurring in the axial skeleton. This case report describes a 44-year-old female with a history of multiple renal stones and benign breast calcifications, who was incidentally found to have a 1.2 cm lucent lesion in the left iliac bone during imaging for nephrolithiasis.

Intraosseous hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors which are more commonly seen in the vertebrae and skull but they rare in the ribs. Rib hemangiomas can mimic malignant rib lesions and definitive clinical and imaging diagnosis might be difficult and pathological confirmation will be required. Here we report a rib hemangioma in a 49-year-old male presented with painless chest wall swelling of 9 years duration, on chest CT scan the lesion showed dense radiating type calcification with cortical destruction.

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.
