Posttraumatic Arteriovenous Hemangioma of the Hypothenar Eminence in a Car Mechanic / 대한정형외과학회잡지

ABSTRACT

Arteriovenous hemangiomas are found mainly in the limbs and scalp, and are common in women and children. However, there have been very limited reports concerning posttraumatic arteriovenous hemangioma, and none was reported in the medical literature regarding posttraumatic arteriovenous hemangioma of hypothenar eminence causing neurologic symptoms. We report a case of arteriovenous hemangioma of hypothenar eminence after recurrent trauma that was successfully treated by an excision of the mass and vein graft.
