    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To discuss clinical application of the color Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosis and treatment of cavernous hemangioma in deep subcutaneous tissue. METHODS: From 1996, 15 cases of cavernous hemangioma were diagnosed and located with color Doppler ultrasonography and were embolized under monitoring of the ultrasonography or resected by operation before re-examination of the hemangioma via the color Doppler ultrasonography after the intervention. RESULTS: Direct embolization was achieved in 10 cases after pinpoint location of the hemangioma by the ultrasonography, and guided embolization was performed successfully in 2 cases via the monitoring of ultrasonography, and operation had to be adopted to remove the focus. No reoccurrence of the hemangioma was observed in all the cases. CONCLUSION: Cavernous hemangioma in deep subcutaneous tissue could be easily diagnosed and located with color Doppler ultrasonography, and could be removed by embolization under monitoring of the ultrasonography successfully.
