Three cases of hemangioma with phlebolithiasis of the head and neck.

Hemangioma with phlebolithiasis in head and neck region is relatively rare.We have treated three cases of hemangioma with phlebolithiasis during the past 12 years.All three patients were female adolescence. Two had hemangiomatous swelling on the cheek, and the other on the submandibular area. In all three patients, many calcifications were detected at the swelling areas on roentogenography and surgical removal of the hemangiomatous tissues revealed hemangioma with multiple phleboliths.Postoperative histological diagnoses were cavernous hemangioma, hemangioma of submandibular gland.
