Popis: Intramuscular hemangioma is a distinctly rare neoplasm originating within normal muscle. In the head and neck region, it occurs most frequently in the masseter muscle. Diagnosis of intramuscular hemangioma is extremely difficult because it is not encountered frequently and is often confused with salivary gland stone, parotid neoplasm or other tumors. In this report, a second case of intramuscular hemangioma of the digastric muscle and the diagnosis of this type of tumor in the early stage and the importance of its treatment are described.
