Rare Case of Capillary Hemangioma of Bilateral Lower Limb: A Case Report

Journal Title: International Journal of Current Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 16

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this case report is to bring to light an unusual case of soft tissue tumor in a young female. Case Report: Hemangiomas are commonly occuring soft tissue tumors, but it rarely involves the feet. We are reporting a twenty two year old female with capillary hemangioma of her left ankle and right foot which was painful. Her excision biopsy was done and microscopic investigation revealed capillary hemangioma. The patient has had no recurrence since the surgery. Discussion: Few similar cases have been reported in the past in children, adults and elderly patients and none of them experienced any recurrence after treatment by excision or sclerotherapy or embolisation. Conclusion: Insidious onset and gradually progressive painful swellings can often be misdiagnosed as vascular malignant neoplasms. Here we have reported an unusual case of capillary hemangioma of bilateral lower limb in a young female.
