  • Title: Ovarian cavernous hemangioma in an 8-year-old girl.
    Author: Mirilas P, Georgiou G, Zevgolis G.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1999 Apr; 9(2):116-8. PubMed ID: 10342121.
    Abstract:
    The case of an ovarian cavernous hemangioma with torsion in an 8-year-old girl is described. Current literature records less than 50 cases of which only 8 are in children. The presenting symptoms of acute abdomen and the ultrasonographic study led to the preoperative diagnosis of torsion of an ovarian tumor. Salpingo-oophorectomy and appendicectomy were performed with an uneventful postoperative course. The histological pattern of the tumor was that of an entirely cavernous hemangioma. The case is reported in view of its rarity.
