    Author: Amarapurkar D, Jadliwala M, Punamiya S, Jhawer P, Chitale A, Amarapurkar A.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1998 Aug; 93(8):1357-9. PubMed ID: 9707065.
    Abstract:
    Cavernous hemangioma of the rectum are uncommon benign vascular lesions. Misdiagnosis often occurs because of lack of awareness of classic clinical features. Endoscopy, plain x-ray abdomen, barium enema, and selective angiography are useful means of investigation for accurate diagnosis. Three cases of rectal haemangioma are presented that were earlier misdiagnosed as ulcerative colitis.
