Sumario: | Hemangioma is congenital or traumatic in origin, and it is caused due to atypical build-up of the blood vessel. It is a painless benign condition with typical characteristic clinical features. These generally occur in the first three decades of life with no gender predispositions. A plain soft tissue radiograph can demonstrate phleboliths and aid in diagnosing an intramuscular hemangioma. The present report is a rare deep-seated facial hemangioma involving various facial muscles with multiple phleboliths; characteristics clinical and radiological features. A 22-year-old male patient reported a complaint of swelling on the right side of the jaw. Conventional radiography showed the right cheek’s soft tissue and multiple round, target-like radiopacities of variable sizes. |
