Cavernous Hemangioma with Bone Formation in a Child: Case Report

Abstract
A 13-year-old girl suffering from seizures who was found to have hemangioma calcificans in the frontal lobe was surgically treated. The favorable postoperative course of our patient as well as reported cases suggest early excision of the lesion if it is located in an accessible area. Histological examination confirmed ossification with marrow in the lesion. The literature regarding ossification in the brain is discussed briefly.
