Intramuscular hemagiomas are rare tumors constituting less than 1% of all hemangiomas. The clinical picture is usually unlike a conventional vascular tumor. Pre-operative diagnosis is very difficult and most often, the condition is recognized only during surgery or after histopathological examination. This is a report of one such rare tumor,which presented as a painful mass in the Flexor Digitorum Superficialis. It was accompanied by the hitherto unreported complication of a Volkmann's like contracture of the deeper forearm muscles. The peculiar feature of this tumor are highlighted and are discussed with a review of relevant literature.
肌内血管瘤是一种罕见的肿瘤，占所有血管瘤的比例不到1%。其临床表现通常与传统的血管肿瘤不同。术前诊断非常困难，大多数情况下，这种情况只有在手术期间或组织病理学检查后才能被识别。本文报告了这样一例罕见肿瘤，它表现为浅屈指肌处的疼痛性肿块。它还伴有前臂深层肌肉出现类似Volkmann挛缩的并发症，这种并发症此前尚未有报道。本文突出了该肿瘤的独特特征，并结合相关文献进行了讨论。
