Infantile hemangiomas are the most common type of vascular tumor to affect babies, [4] accounting for 90% of hemangiomas. [5] They are characterised by the abnormal proliferation of endothelial cells and of deviant blood vessel formation or architecture. [6] Hypoxic stress seems to be a major trigger for this. [7]
Lymphohemangioma is a disease characterized by swelling of the lymph nodes and blood vessels.It is variously described as a "mixture of clear fluid and blood-filled cysts", [citation needed] a mass of abnormal swollen veins and lymph nodes, or a tumorous growth of lymph and blood vessels.

Two cases of lymphangiosarcoma arising from lymphangioma circumscriptum have been reported; however, in both of the patients, the preexisting lesion ...

Glomeruloid hemangioma is a distinctive vascular tumor first described in 1990 when found to be associated with POEMS syndrome and Castleman disease. [1] [2] Glomeruloid hemangiomas can manifest as wine-red sessile or pedunculated papules, papulonodules, subcutaneous bluish compressible tumors, or small, firm, reddish-violaceous, dome-shaped papules.
They have been described as masses that fall between a hemangioma and angiosarcoma.They are vascular tumors that commonly present with an enlarging mass and most commonly involve the lungs, liver, and musculoskeletal system, although many other body sites have been reported, including the head and neck, intestines, lymph nodes, pleura, retroperitoneum, heel, stomach.

Microvenular hemangioma is an acquired benign vascular tumor that presents as an asymptomatic, slowly growing, 0.5- to 2.0 cm reddish lesion on the forearms or other sites of young to middle-aged adults. [2] The cause of microvenular hemangioma is unknown, however it has been associated with immunosuppression.
