The most common type of reactive proliferative tumors are pyogenic granulomas also known as lobular capillary hemangiomas, that are more often found in children and young adults. [4] These granulomas are well defined growths of less than a centimetre across. They are bright red due to being highly vascularised, and bleed and ulcerate easily. [10]

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare tumor, first characterized by Sharon Weiss and Franz Enzinger in 1982 [1] that both clinically and histologically is intermediate between angiosarcoma and hemangioma. However, a distinct, disease-defining genetic alteration recently described for EHE indicates that it is an entirely separate ...
Composite hemangioendothelioma is a low-grade angiosarcoma typically occurring in adults, although it has been described in infancy. [ 2 ] : 601 Spindle-cell hemangioendothelioma [ 3 ] ) is a vascular tumor that was first described in 1986 by Sharon Weiss, M.D. , [ 4 ] and commonly presents in a child or young adult who develops blue nodules of ...
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (also known as: [1] "Epithelioid hemangioma," "Histiocytoid hemangioma," "Inflammatory angiomatous nodule," "Intravenous atypical vascular proliferation," "Papular angioplasia," "Inflammatory arteriovenous hemangioma," and "Pseudopyogenic granuloma") usually presents with pink to red-brown, dome-shaped, dermal papules or nodules of the head or neck ...
Targetoid hemosiderotic hemangioma manifests as a single, tiny, reddish-violaceous to brown targetoid lesion that can grow centrifugally in the acute phase is encircled by a hemorrhagic halo. [3] The halo may vanish in later phases, leaving just a central papule. [4] [5] There have been reports of certain cases without targetoid development. [6]

Approximately 5% of adults have liver hemangiomas in the United States, but most are asymptomatic. [30] Liver hemangiomas usually occur between the ages of 30 and 50 and more commonly in women. [4] Cases of infantile liver cavernomas are extremely rare. Cavernous hemangioma of the eye is more prevalent in women than men and between the ages of ...
