Abstract:
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) known as Masson's hemangioma is a rare benign reactive vascular lesion caused by the abnormal proliferation of endothelial cells. The lesion occurs most commonly in the fingers, head and neck, but very rare in the foot. We report a case of IPEH in the foot treated with operative excision.
