This case report describes a rare instance of mixed capillary and cavernous hemangioma occurring in the uterine cervix of a 40-year-old female patient. The authors emphasize that histopathological examination is essential to diagnose this benign vascular lesion and distinguish it from other pathological conditions, noting that most such cases are found in women of childbearing age. The paper highlights the rarity of cervical hemangiomas while documenting their origin from endothelial cells or pericytes. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as one indication for GnRH antagonists, though the paper's main focus is uterine fibroids.

Abstract

Hemangioma of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare benign vascular lesion and only a few sporadic cases have been reported. Cervical hemangioma is characterized by increase in the number of normal and abnormal veins. Histopathology examination is needed to diagnose hemangioma and to differentiate this disease with other pathological conditions. Hemangioma is a benign tumor which originates from endothelial cells of the blood vessels, which represent multipotent cellular elements, or from pericytes located on the outer side of the blood vessel wall. The majority of cervical hemangiomas have been reported in women of child bearing age.
