Abstract

Vascular malformations represent the wide pattern of the various pathologies, in which the most common is a hemangioma. Unfortunately, the most of surgeons and teachers of medical universities use the outdated classification of hemangiomas. In the current work the modern classification of hemangiomas with the detailed analysis of each types of these vascular tumors is present.
