title: [Cavernous hemangioma of the rectum: an uncommon cause of pelvic pain. Apropos of 2 cases].
abstract: Diffuse cavernous hoemangioma of the rectum is rare. Correct identification is often delayed. The patients usually present with rectal bleeding. We describe two men who had diffuse cavernous hoemangiomas. They complained of rectal pain. One appeared to have a rectal tumor and the other a levator syndrome.
