“…In particular locations, these tumors can be the cause of specific clinical signs. The location in the medial region of the elbow is described to cause neurological symptoms by encapsulating or invading the ulnar nerve [ 12 ]. The ulnar nerve was not having contact with the tumor and caused no symptoms in the two cases.…”

Introduction: Hemangiomas are common benign vascular tumors. Intramuscular hemangioma is a very rare type of hemangioma occurring in the skeletal muscle. The lower limb muscles are more likely to be affected. The location within the muscles of the forearm is extremely rare. Case Report: We present three cases of intramuscular hemangioma of the upper limb. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a vascular tumor within the pronator teres muscle in two cases and the extensor pollicis brevis muscle in the other. The tumors were surgically excised, and histopathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of intramuscular cavernous hemangioma. The limb function was good and there was no recurrence at 12-month follow-up in the three cases. Conclusion: Intramuscular hemangiomas of the forearm are a condition that should be evoked by orthopedic surgeons in front of pain and swelling of this region. MRI is the most effective imaging method to suspect the diagnosis. Keywords: Cavernous hemangioma, muscles, upper limb, case report.

“…Many reports have stated that intramuscular hemangiomas can occur in various sites within the muscles of the trunk and the upper and lower limbs, with predominance in the thigh muscles. 9 – 11 About 45% of intramuscular hemangioma are found in the lower extremities, 27% are found in the upper extremities, and the remaining are equally distributed between the head and neck area and the trunk. Because intramuscular hemangiomas are rare vascular tumors and are not usually suspected based on clinical findings, they are of interest to surgeons as a cause of diagnostic problems.…”

An intramuscular hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor that often occurs in the lower extremities. We herein report a rare case of an intramuscular hemangioma that occurred in the gluteus medius muscle and was misdiagnosed as lumbar disc herniation. A 36-year-old woman presented with incidental and infrequent pain of the left buttock. She was diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation and underwent treatment. Although her pain was slightly relieved, relapse soon occurred. X-ray examination and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass in the gluteus medius muscle. The mass was suspected to be a malignant tumor and was therefore resected. The final diagnosis was an intramuscular hemangioma. Her pain completely disappeared thereafter and did not recur. Patients with intramuscular hemangiomas usually have no specific symptoms; therefore, this tumor is often misdiagnosed. When a satisfactory treatment effect is not obtained, the diagnosis should be reassessed in a timely manner.
