Further examples of hemangioma:

Histology

Tumor of the blood vessels of capillary calibre (no elastic fibres nor smooth muscle within the wall, size is variable) and undifferentiated endothelia. The tumor has no capsule,its borders are unsharp. Superficial form often regress. Larger tumors, which have deep parts, do not regress and grow together with the patient.
