Abstract:
Hemangioma of the large intestine is rare, but it is a clinically important entity because of the possibility of massive hemorrhage. The case is reported of a patient with a formed, sessile, polypoid-type cavernous hemangioma in the ascending colon that was removed successfully by endoscopic mucosal resection.
