Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg. 1992 Oct;21(5):287-91. doi: 10.1016/s0901-5027(05)80739-8.

Abstract

Intraosseous hemangiomas of the facial skeleton are infrequently seen, with most cases occurring in the mandible and maxilla. Hemangioma of the zygomatic bone, however, is extremely rare. A case is presented in which selective embolization, resection of the tumor, and immediate reconstruction were carried out.
