Abstract EN
Lobular capillary hemangioma is a benign lesion of the skin and mucous membranes.
Subcutaneous lobular capillary hemangioma presents as a deeper nodule.
Lack of the characteristic surface changes of this subtype of lobular capillary hemangioma makes the clinical diagnosis challenging.
We describe clinical, radiologic, and histological features of a subcutaneous lobular capillary hemangioma tissue presenting as a facial mass in a 12-year-old male.
The mass was a firm, nontender, immobile, subcutaneous nodule, with no color change of the overlying skin.
CT imaging documented a hyperdense and nonlipomatous mass involving soft tissue of the left lateral nasal wall.
An excisional biopsy was performed.
Histologic evaluation showed subcutaneous lobular capillary hemangioma.
Subcutaneous lobular capillary hemangioma, although uncommon, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lateral nasal wall mass in children.
