Central hemangioma of the maxilla: variance in clinical and radiographic features

Central hemangioma is a rare benign proliferation of blood vessels most often seen in the vertebral column and skull, but rarely in the jaws. It mainly occurs in the second decade of life with a female predilection. The diagnosis of central hemangioma is challenging due to its variable clinical and radiological characteristics and low incidence in the jaws. This article presents two cases of maxillary central hemangioma, analyzing their clinical, radiographic, and histological features and comparing them with existing literature on central hemangioma.
