Intramasseteric Cavernous Haemangioma: A Case Report.
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Intramuscular haemangiomas (IMHs) of masseter muscle are extremely rare in head and neck region and often misdiagnosed as parotid tumours. We report a case of a 40 yrs old female who presented with a progressive non tender swelling onright side of face for more than 12 months. MRI and Doppler USG of parotid region revealed a heterogeneous highly vascularized mass located deep to masseter muscle. Patient underwent surgical resection viaretrograde tracing of facial nerve branches and without need for superficial parotidectomy. Pathological examination of resected mass revealed a cavernousIMH.
