Abstract
Intramuscular hemangiomas are rare, slow growing, angiomatous tumors, generally asymptomatic, and rarely presenting with complications. We report a rare case of a Hemangioma of the Flexor Digitorum Superficialis in a 13-year-old boy, present since birth and with extensive involvement, necessitating excision of the muscle. The patient is presently doing well, barring minimal weakness in finger flexion.Entities:
