“…The condition is more prevalent in women, and recent reports suggest that female sex hormones may play a role in clinical presentation. 5 Ultrasound, CT, or MRI typically establishes a diagnosis of IMH. However, ultrasound is inferior to CT and MRI regarding the location of lesion and relationship with surrounding structures.…”

<p>Hemangiomas are benign vascular malformations. Intramuscular hemangiomas (IMH) of the extraocular muscles are exceedingly rare. So far, only eight cases have been previously reported in the medical literature till date. We report a rare case of an intramuscular hemangioma of the medial rectus muscle presenting severe pain in the right eye and redness in the right sclera. We administered analgesics and steroids for six weeks, with no pain relief. Right ethmoidal dissection was done, and a window was made over the lamina papyracea, and a needle was placed directly into the mass under combined endoscopy and computed tomography (CT)-scan guidance. The mass was embolised with 33% glue and lipiodol. The patient recovered from the pain, and complete vision was restored. Eye discolouration got wholly cured within two weeks.</p>

“…Orbital cavernous hemangiomas present between 20 and 60 years of age and are more common in women. Jayaram et al 17 has postulated a role of menopause, showing that in patients who were postmenopausal and were presumed to have decreasing levels of estrogen and progesterone, lesions decreased in size or remained stable. Regarding tumor laterality, a retrospective study of 104 patients with orbital cavernous hemangiomas shows slight left-sided predominance (53.8%) 18 with rare bilateral involvement.…”

Orbital hemangiomas are the most common primary neoplasm of the orbit and manifest as two distinct pathologic entities: infantile hemangiomas and cavernous hemangiomas. In this article, both infantile and cavernous hemangiomas are reviewed, with special attention paid to the natural history, clinical presentation, and management teams and approaches involved. An example case of each type of hemangioma is presented along with pearls and tips a reader can take away after reading this article.

Orbital cavernous hemangioma is the most common primary tumor in the orbit. With the development of histopathology, it has been confirmed that cavernous hemangioma is not a real tumor, but a special type of vascular malformation. Cavernous hemangioma malformation(CVM) is a more appropriate way to name it. At present, surgical resection is the main treatment for CVMs. The prognosis of the surgery mainly depends on the location and the size of the lesion as well as its relationship with the optic nerve. Therefore, effective imaging information is of great importance. This paper analyzes the radiological imaging characteristics and the advantages and disadvantages between them, including ultrasound, CT, MRI, and SPECT/CT imaging of CVMs, hoping to help improve our understanding of CVMs.
