Cavernous Hemangioma alternate name is Strawberry Nevus. It is the most common primary liver tumor. The tumor rests in the extraocular muscle cone (the space behind the eyeand is surrounded by the muscles which move the eye). It is a vascular tumor, which has stagnant blood. If the tumor results in compression of the optic nerve with connected peripheral vision loss or other signs of optic nerve compromise, the tumor be excised.
Cavernous hemangioma rises from the endothelial cells which lines the blood vessels and has multiple, large vascular channels lined by a single layer of endothelial cells and supported by collagenous walls. They are naturally asymptomatic and incidentally discovered at imaging, surgery, or autopsy
Cavernous Hemangioma are very likely congenital in origin. Cavernous hemangiomas can form other infections and ulcerate. Bleeding is common and may be meaningful following injury to the hemangioma. Hereditary factors may play a part in the pathogenesis of some genetic forms. The wide majority of hemangiomas (as many as 85%) are asymptomatic. Hemangiomas may result symptoms because of the compression of contiguous structures, falling, acute thrombosis, or consumptive coagulopathy (Kasabach-Merritt syndrome).
Hemangiomas can occur in individuals of any age. They frequently happens in middle-aged women. Large cavernous hemangiomas deform the skin and will finally leave visible disfigureness in the skin. Superficial capillary hemangioma may complex fully, leaving no evidence of its past presence.
