Rapidly Involving Congenital Hemangioma, Report of a Clinical Case

Abstract

Congenital hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors fully developed at the time of delivery, in which  the proliferative phase occurs exclusively in utero, so they never increase in size (1). The incidence is  similar in both sexes and there are four types according to the International Society for the Study of  Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA), rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma (RICH), non-involuting  congenital hemangioma (NICH) and slowly and partially involuting congenital hemangiomas (SICH  and PICH) (2)(3).
