Abstract

Abstract

This case report presents a fallopian tube cavernous hemangioma, a highly rare benign tumour, which was found during a caesarean section. Previous medical and gynaecology histories involved endometriosis, adenomyosis, and irritable bowel syndrome. Fallopian tube hemangiomas are sporadic benign vascular tumours, with only 16 cases documented in the literature. These tumours are typically small, ranging from 5 mm to 30 mm in size. The aetiology of hemangiomas is still unclear, but it is commonly believed that the growth of fallopian tube hemangiomas is stimulated by oestrogens, which promote blood vessel growth. Most hemangiomas, which are mainly asymptomatic, are discovered incidentally during surgeries for other conditions or complications. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first ever case of cavernous haemangioma of the fallopian tube identified in pregnancy.
