We experience a case of pseudopolycytemia in dilated cardiomyopathy in a 62 years old man with chronic alcoholism. The patient was successfully managed by stress reduction, stopping of smoking, abstaining from alcohol drinking, use of digoxin, small dose lasix, and phlebotomy. To our knowledge, this is the first case of pseudopolycytemia in dilated cardiomyopathy in Korea. We reported this case with a review of literatures.

Hemangioma is benign tumor that represent an fail in development of the vascular system, network or retiform stage. As with hemangioma elsewhere, spontaneous regression may occur. Histologically capillary hemangioma has a diagnostic lobular arrangement of capillaries and almost all of them are located in nasal or oral mucous membranes. But, as we know, there is no report of hemangioma located in the trachea in Korea, so we report a case of tracheal hemangioma which was manifested massive hemoptysis.
