  • Title: Posttraumatic skull hemangioma: case report.
    Author: Haeren RH, Dings J, Hoeberigs MC, Riedl RG, Rijkers K.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2012 Dec; 117(6):1082-8. PubMed ID: 22998057.
    Abstract:
    Intraosseous cavernous hemangiomas of the skull are rare lesions for which the origin is unclear. The authors present a case in which there was a radiologically documented history of trauma preceding the development of a hemangioma in the frontal bone. In a review of the literature the authors found 83 cases of skull hemangiomas, and 43% of the lesions were located in the frontal bone. In 25% of these lesions, previous trauma was reported anamnestically. The present case and radiological findings related to it suggest a causal relationship between trauma and the development of intraosseous hemangioma.
