title: A case of intramuscular hemangioma of the back.
abstract: Intramuscular hemangioma is an uncommon tumor that usually involves an extremity. They rarely occur after the age of 30. We report a case of an intramuscular hemangioma occurring on the back of a 39-year-old man. Histopathologically, the tumor consisted mainly of large vessels between the muscle fibers. Phleboliths were observed in some of the vessel walls.
