A Rare Case Report of Cervical Hemangiomatous Polyp.

Abstract

The uterine cervix is a rare site for cavernous hemangiomas. Cervical hemangiomas are slow-growing tumors with characteristic histological findings, including dilated vessels with increased endothelial cells. Although their pathophysiology remains unclear, hormones are believed to play an important role in the development of these vascular tumors. They may be asymptomatic due to their small size, but they can cause gynecological and obstetrical complications, including abnormal uterine bleeding and impaired fertility. Due to their small size, conservative treatment is the first line of management. Hysterectomy is considered for refractory cases or for patients who are not of childbearing age.

We present a case report of a 62-year-old postmenopausal female with postmenopausal bleeding and a polypoid mass hanging over the anterior cervical wall through its stalk. The surgical biopsy revealed no signs of neoplastic changes, with the only notable finding being a polypoidal lesion representing a cavernous hemangiomatous cervical polyp.
