Most ot these tumors are present at birth or little bit later and they are the most common tumors in the pediatric population. 60% of all of them are located in head and neck. In neck they show soft consistency without pain. Case description: We report four cases of cervical hemangiomas seen in our department in one year. They were located in the external yugular vein, the submaxilar gland and at submucosal hypopharyngeal and cervical posterior level. Discussion: Hemangiomas have an unknown etiology and they are located in any anatomic location although the highest prevalence is in head and neck. The differential diagnosis include vascular phlebectasias, branchial cysts, laryngoceles and lymphangiomas. The treatment of choice goes from conservative measures to surgical excision due to rapid growth or aesthetic reasons. Conclusions: Hemangiomas must be included in the differential diagnosis of cervical tumors. They are frecuently confused with vascular phlebectasias. Treatment is usually the surgical resection.Introducción y objetivo: El hemangioma es un tumor compuesto por la dilatación y el engrosamiento de las asas capilares. La mayoría de estos tumores están presentes en el momento del nacimiento o poco después, siendo los tumores más frecuentes en la población pediátrica. El 60% de todos ellos se localizan en la cabeza y el cuello. A nivel cervical se presentan como una tumoración de consistencia blanda y no dolorosa. Descripción del caso: Presentamos cuatro casos de hemangiomas cervicales valorados en nuestro servicio en el transcurso de un año localizados en la vena yugular externa, la glándula submaxilar, a nivel hipofaríngeo submucoso y cervical posterior. Discusión: Los hemangiomas presentan una etiología desconocida y se pueden encontrar en cualquier localización anatómica aunque el predominio es en cabeza y cuello. El diagnóstico diferencial incluye flebectasias vasculares, quistes branquiales, laringoceles y linfangiomas entre otros. El tratamiento de elección es variable, desde medidas conservadoras a la exéresis indicada por el crecimiento rápido o por motivos estéticos. Conclusiones: Los hemangiomas deben incluirse en el diagnóstico diferencial de las tumoraciones cervicales. Inicialmente es frecuente su confusión con flebectasias vasculares. El tratamiento habitual es la resección quirúrgica.2016text (article)https://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=5403439(Revista) ISSN 2171-9381Revista ORL, ISSN 2171-9381, null 7, Vol. 1, 2016, pags. 39-44spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
