Abstract
. Cavernous haemangioma is a very rare vascular malformation of the uterus.
We describe the CT and MRI findings of a cavernous haemangioma in an 81-year-old
female with recurrent menorrhagia. CT showed a well-marginated mass with multifocal
calcifications and extensive haemorrhage, as well as necrosis in the anterior wall of the
uterus. MRI revealed heterogeneous low- to high-signal intensities of the mass on T1
and T2 weighted images as well as portions with poor enhancement of the mass on
contrast-enhanced T1 weighted images. Although rare, cavernous haemangioma
should be included in the differential diagnosis of a calcified haemorrhagic necrotic
uterine mass in post-menopausal women.
