Severe diffuse cavernous hemangioma of the lower limb is rarely seen among young people and sometimes can be a fatal challenge for operation. We reported a case of diffuse cavernous hemangioma involving both skin and muscles of the left lower limb and perineal region in an adolescent patient. The patient who had previously undergone a local hemangioma resection of the foot ultimately ended in superficial femoral artery ligation and supergenual thigh amputation of the left upper leg because of uncontrollable massive bleeding of anastomotic stoma.
Key words： cavernous hemangioma; femoral artery; ligation, amputation
