Intraosseous haemangioma of the ilium.
Intraosseous haemangioma, an uncommon benign vascular tumour, is most commonly seen in adults and tends to involve the vertebrae and the skull. Lesions of flat bones are rare and the imaging findings in these patients are non-specific. We report a unique case of intraosseous haemangioma in the ilium of a 7-year-old girl studied by US, radiography, scintigraphy, CT and MRI.
