haemangioma, cavernous (medicine)


haemangioma, cavernous


A vascular tumour preponderantly composed of large dilated blood vessels, often containing large amounts of blood, occurring in the skin, subcutaneously, or both, and also in many viscera, particularly the liver, spleen, pancreas, and sometimes the brain. The typical superficial lesions are bright to dark red in colour; deep lesions have a blue colour. A cavernous haemangioma in the skin extends more deeply than a capillary haemangioma and is less likely to regress spontaneously.
