A Review on the Histological Types of Hemangioma

Even after the approved classification of congenital vascular tumours/malformations which was first published by Mulliken and Glowacki, in the year 1982, there is still a significant amount of confusion to categorize hemangiomas and vascular malformations. Hemangiomas are considered to be true, benign neoplasms arising from endothelial cells and must be clearly differentiated from localized defects of vascular morphogenesis, i.e., vascular malformations.
