Capillary hemangioma of the uterine cervix: An unusual cause of vaginal bleeding in a child

Abstract

Only a few scattered reports of hemangiomas of the female genital tract are found in the literature. Most of them are in adults, very few of which are located in the uterus, and none in the cervix. We present a very unusual case of profuse vaginal bleeding from a benign hemangioma in a 6-yr-old girl. Its location in the uterine cervix required complete surgical excision.
