“…Microscopically it does not seem to differ fundamentally from the smaller strawberry naevi (capillary-cavernous haemangiomata) which most writers group with the involuting forms of haemangioma. These lesions have been studied extensively in large series which show that if they are left untreated, spontaneous involution almost invariably results (Lister, 1938;Ronchese, 1953;Bivings, 1954;Modlin, 1955;Blackfield, Torrey, Morris, and Low-Beer, 1957;Lampe and Latourette, 1959;Simpson, 1959;OBrien, 1964). But the giant haemangioma is much larger, with more frequent complications, and the literature has very few records of cases that have been simply observed, without some form of radical treatment-injection of sclerosing agents, irradiation, excision or amputation.…”
