DISCUSSIONHemangiomas and hemangioendotheliomas are in fact proliferations of capillaries rather than vascular malformations. The vessels are dilated as a consequence of the high flow. Hemangiomas are the most common vascular disorders of infancy. They are small, harmless birthmarks that appear soon after birth, enlarge in the first 8-18 months, and then involute slowly in 5-8 years. They sometimes can be life-threatening, especially when they involve the larynx, paratracheal regions, or vital structures such as the heart, mediastinum, and liver (15). By contrast, the hepatic hemangioendothelioma of infancy is a different pathologic entity, characterized by multifocal benign vascular lesions, typically involving both the liver and skin (16).
