Résumé

We report a case of an intramuscular thigh hemangioma in a 19-year-old woman with a several year history of atraumatic thigh pain. Radiographs obtained by her primary care physician demonstrated periosteal bone reaction, prompting referral to Orthopaedic Oncology department. The patient had successful symptomatic management with propranolol. The case highlights the diagnosis and potential treatments. In a stepwise approach to care for symptomatic benign vascular lesions, propranolol has been a proven therapeutic option and may be a useful first-line therapy for symptomatic hemangiomas.
