Abstract | Hemangiomas are benign soft tissue tumors which are congenital and occur due to abnormal proliferations of blood vessels. Most common location of hemangiomas is subcutaneous adipose tissue, but skeletal muscle hemangiomas are very rare which make up to 0.8% of all hemangiomas. Usually, the intramuscular lesions are common in thigh region and calf muscles and are relatively rare in the facial muscles. Long-standing lesions results in phleboliths, and this may cause some symptoms. Conventional treatment of these isolated lesions may not yield satisfactory results. Hence, surgical excision of the lesion in toto results in aesthetically pleasing results with low chances of recurrence. In this article, we report a case of a left masseter intramuscular hemangioma in 19-year-old patient which was successfully managed by complete surgical excision. |
