  • Title: Intraosseous capillary hemangioma of the frontal bone.
    Author: Hook SR, Font RL, McCrary JA, Harper RL.
    Journal: Am J Ophthalmol; 1987 Jun 15; 103(6):824-7. PubMed ID: 3591881.
    Abstract:
    A 31-year-old woman with a history of slowly progressive proptosis associated with blepharoptosis was found radiographically to have a lytic lesion of the frontal bone. Complete surgical excision of the bony mass was performed. Histopathologically the tumor was a capillary hemangioma. Follow-up information two years later showed that the patient was alive and well, without clinical evidence of recurrence. Plain x-ray films appear to be more reliable for diagnosis than computed tomography exhibiting the characteristic sunburst pattern of intraosseous hemangiomas.
