Lobular capillary hemangiomas (LCHs) are a common form of benign vascular tumors originating from the skin and subcutaneous tissues. We have described the case of a 47-year-old man who had presented with a 1-month history of a tender swelling to the right temporal region. Biopsy was performed to rule out temporal arteritis and demonstrated a subset of LCH, now formally known as intravascular LCH. We have described the occurrence of a rare subtype of LCH arising from the intravascular wall of the temporal artery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the only reported case of an intravascular LCH in the Caribbean.
小叶状毛细血管瘤（LCHs）是起源于皮肤和皮下组织的一种常见良性血管肿瘤形式。我们描述了一名47岁男性的病例，他右侧颞部出现压痛性肿胀1个月。进行活检以排除颞动脉炎，结果显示为LCH的一个亚型，现正式称为血管内LCH。我们描述了一种罕见的LCH亚型出现在颞动脉血管壁上的情况。据我们所知，这是加勒比地区唯一报告的血管内LCH病例。
