Cavernous hemangioma is a benign hamartomatous proliferation of endothelial tissues that is found most frequently in the central nervous system. Extremity involvement is uncommon, and axillary involvement is particularly rare. We present the case of a 43-year-old man with a 2-year history of enlarging axillary mass. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a peripherally enhancing lesion medial to the brachial vein and close to the medial brachial cutaneous nerve. A 3D-printed model was created based on magnetic resonance imaging, which elucidated the spatial relationship between the mass and surrounding structures. The mass was resected and pathology revealed a cavernous hemangioma. Here we discuss the utility of 3D modeling of a rare tumor.
海绵状血管瘤是一种内皮组织的良性错构瘤性增生，最常见于中枢神经系统。累及四肢并不常见，而累及腋窝则尤为罕见。我们报告一例43岁男性，有腋窝肿块增大2年的病史。磁共振成像显示在肱静脉内侧、靠近臂内侧皮神经处有一个周边强化的病变。基于磁共振成像创建了一个3D打印模型，该模型阐明了肿块与周围结构之间的空间关系。切除肿块后病理显示为海绵状血管瘤。在此我们讨论一种罕见肿瘤的3D建模的实用性。
