Cavernous hemangioma is a benign vascular lesion that is rarely seen in uteri. We presented a 50 year-old woman who had both myoma and cavernous hemangioma in uteri and TAH+BSO was performed for myoma. Macro scopically, the size of the myoma was 8 cm in diameter and also in the posterior myometrium, with well border and red color lesion, which was 5 mm in diameter, was seen. Histopathologic evaluation revealed dilated vasculatures in different diameter, lined by endothelial cells. Hemangioma may be in different diameters and may set all layers of myometrium. It may cause severe bleeding which needs histerectomy. Therefore, diagnosis of this lesion is important.

Kavernöz hemangioma uterusun çok nadir gârülen benign vasküler lezyonlarındandır. Burada 50 yaşında, myom nedeni ile TAH+ BSO operasyonu olan olgunun myom ve kavernöz hemangioma birlikteliği sunulmuştur. Makroskopik olarak intra mural yerleşimli 8 cm çapta myom ve /posterior myometriumda 5 mm çapında iyi sınırlı, kjırmızı renkli lezyon izlendi. Bu lezyonun mikroskopik incelemesinde endotelle döşeli,sırtsırta vermiş, çeşitli çaplarda, ince duvalı damarlar dikkati çekti. Farklı boyutlarda olabilen hemangiomalar bütün myometrium katlarını tutabilir ve histerektoktomiyi gerektiren ciddi kanamalara sebep olabilirler. Bu nejdenle tanınmaları önemli olabilir.
