Primary hemangioma of the occipital bone in the region of the torcula--two case reports.
Two rare cases of subtorcular occipital bone hemangioma occurred in 26-year-old and 30-year-old female patients. Partial resection was performed in both cases because of the proximity to the torcula. No recurrence was seen at follow-up examination at 9 and 12 months.
