Paediatric intramuscular haemangiomata—don't overlook the phlebolith!

S J Morris, MRCP, FRCR and H Adams, MRCP, FRCR

Department of Radiology, Llandough Hospital NHS Trust, Penarth, South Glamorgan CF64 2XX, UK

Three children presented with soft tissue masses which were clinically suspected to be soft tissue sarcomas. The identification of phleboliths on initial radiological studies should have suggested the correct diagnosis of benign intramuscular haemangiomata. Subsequent referral to a paediatric oncological unit, and the unnecessary parental anxiety so generated, could have been avoided.
