Abstract:
Cavernous hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that usually present as unilateral, intraconal mass lesions in middle-aged women. They may on occasion extend to the orbital apex or have intracranial extension. The authors present three patients with deep apical hemangiomas, two of whom had intracranial extension to the cavernous sinus area.
