“…Complete excision can be challenging due to the vascularity, and the infiltrative nature of these lesions when intramuscular. Failure to completely excise the lesion is the reason for the high recurrence rate of up to 20 % in the literature [52]. Canavese et al reported no recurrence with wide resection, but higher than 20 % recurrence with marginal resection.…”

Benign lesions comprise a majority of soft tissue tumors. It has been estimated that their incidence outnumbers that of malignant tumors by a factor of at least 100 [1]. While history and physical examination can start the diagnostic process, imaging including the use of magnetic resonance imaging can be more helpful. Biopsy of these tumors is sometimes necessary and can be performed in a number of ways, often in conjunction with definitive treatment. Specific diagnostic and treatment strategies for a number of the more commonly encountered benign soft tissue tumors including lipomas, pigmented villonodular synovitis and hemangiomas are reviewed. An algorithm for the management of benign soft tissue tumors is discussed.

“…These lesions generally appear as areas of high signal intensity on both 𝑇1 and 𝑇2 images compared to most soft tissue tumors, which display intermediate signal intensity on 𝑇1 and high signal intensity on 𝑇2. (14) Ultrasonography (US) shows a venous type signal within isoechogenic or hyperechogenic mass. (4) In our case, the US showed an organized hematoma; however, a soft tissue neoplastic lesion could not be ruled out, particularly as the vascularity was signi cantly increased.…”

Case: Cavernous hemangioma, an uncommon benign vascular lesion, can affect different joints. It generally presents as atraumatic swelling over the joint with normal radiographic ndings. We present a case of a healthy 5-year-old girl with chronic knee pain over the anteromedial aspect following minor trauma. Conclusion:The patient underwent all baseline blood investigations and plain radiograph of her knee, all of which were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging showed hemangioma. Surgical excision was performed and histological studies con rmed a cavernous hemangioma. Delayed diagnosis may increase the risk of invading and damaging the joint resulting in further morbidities.

“…Intramuscular hemangioma presents as a slow-growing mass with compressibility and without pulsations or bruits due to the presence of minor vascular malformations [ 16 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Intramuscular hemangioma poses a major diagnostic challenge [ 7 , 11 , 25 ].…”

Introduction: Although upper extremity intramuscular hemangioma is a rare clinical entity, it poses considerable morbidity in the functional needs of an individual. The diagnosis of intramuscular hemangioma poses a diagnostic glitch. The combined radiological and histopathological assessment provides a complete understanding and diagnosis for the same. Every tumor follows an individualized protocol for its management. Case Report: A 15-year-old female presented with swelling over dorsal aspect of distal 1/3rd right forearm, which was 3 cm away from the articular surface of the right wrist from the past 5 years. There was no history of trauma or infection over the right wrist. Finkelstein’s test was negative, which rule out de Quervain’s tenosynovitis. The movements of the right wrist were unrestricted without any distal neurovascular deficit. MRI of her right wrist and hand suggested the presence of low flow vascular malformation within the musculotendinous junction of APL and EPB muscles. The patient underwent excision biopsy of the hemangiomatous lesion in toto without any neurological complications. No recurrence was noted in the follow-up period for 6 months. Conclusion: Being a benign vascular tumor, MRI provides the gateway to diagnose intramuscular hemangioma for early intervention to provide better functional results. The choice of definitive treatment for APL and EPB hemangioma was excision biopsy in toto which provided better functional results in our patient. Keywords: Hemangioma, intramuscular, abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis brevis, MRI, excision biopsy.
