Giant intracranial hemangioma in a neonate.

ABSTRACT

In this report we detail the case of an infant presenting with a giant intracranial congenital hemangioma and describe the clinical features and surgical management. Congenital hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that typically present as skin lesions in neonates and infants. On rare occasions they present as intracranial tumors. The possibility that these tumors may undergo spontaneous regression poses a treatment dilemma.
