Intramuscular hemangioma is a benign tumor, usually occurring in the lower limbs. We report a rare case of intramuscular hemangioma that occurred in the gluteus medius muscle and was misdiagnosed as an injury to the gluteus medius muscle with bleeding. A 36 year old male presented with left hip pain after a clear history of trauma. He was diagnosed with damage to the gluteus medius muscle and bleeding, and received treatment, but the pain did not improve significantly. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) shows the formation of hematoma in the gluteus medius muscle.The patient underwent MRI enhancement and was ultimately diagnosed with a gluteal muscle hemangioma.Patients with intramuscular hemangioma usually do not have specific symptoms and have a clear history of trauma for this patient.Therefore, this type of tumor is often misdiagnosed. When the treatment effect is not ideal, the diagnosis should be re evaluated in a timely manner.
肌内血管瘤是一种良性肿瘤，通常发生在下肢。我们报告一例罕见的肌内血管瘤，其发生于臀中肌，被误诊为臀中肌损伤伴出血。一名36岁男性在有明确外伤史后出现左髋部疼痛。他被诊断为臀中肌损伤伴出血，并接受了治疗，但疼痛并未明显改善。磁共振成像（MRI）显示臀中肌内有血肿形成。患者接受了MRI增强检查，最终被诊断为臀肌血管瘤。肌内血管瘤患者通常没有特异性症状，而该患者有明确的外伤史。因此，这类肿瘤常被误诊。当治疗效果不理想时，应及时重新评估诊断。
