title: Cavernous hemangioma of the thyroid.
abstract: Most current vascular alterations of the thyroid are connected with the organization of a thyroid hematoma after fine-needle aspiration (FNA). Cavernous hemangioma is a benign congenital vascular malformation that occasionally affects the thyroid. This article presents two cases of this rare thyroid pathology unrelated to FNA.
