Venous hemangioma resection

Venous hemangioma is also a common benign tumor in the orbit. The age of onset is relatively large, but it is mainly seen in adolescent patients. Venous hemangioma is relatively common in the upper quadrant, causing the eyeball to protrude and shift outward and downward. Anterior orbits can touch soft bumps with irregular borders. The tumor communicates with the systemic circulation and therefore has a certain orthostatic position. Venous hemangioma can cause acute pain and high orbital pressure due to ruptured bleeding of the tumor wall or vascular embolism, which requires emergency treatment. The diagnosis requires imaging examination, including ultrasound, CT or MRI, and the discovery of calcification has diagnostic value. The main treatment is surgery and the prognosis is good.
