Cavernous Hemangioma treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Cavernous hemangioma is a benign malformation of the blood vessels, made up of dilated spaces filled with blood, which can be located in the skin, the liver, the brain, or other organs.

How it presents: It often produces no discomfort and is discovered incidentally; depending on its location and size, it may cause local symptoms or be a simple finding with no major consequence.

When to investigate it? It is worth evaluating when it grows, causes pain, or is located in sites that could compromise an important function.

Which specialist treats it? The internist can coordinate the initial evaluation and, depending on the location, refer to the corresponding specialty; raising the finding with a professional helps determine whether or not it requires follow-up.
