Among them, 5 cases with hemangioma on the face and neck, 1 case on the back, 1 case on the buttock, and 1 case on the leg. The maximal size of the hemangioma was 31.2 cm x 9.1 cm and the minimal size was 27.3 cm x 6.0 cm. Before operation, angiography was taken to find out the size of tumor. During operation, intervention-embolism and circumferential suture were carried out to control bleeding so that resection of tumor was practicable. RESULTS: There had been successful result in all the cases with huge hemangioma. No recurrence were found with following up 8 months to 4 years(averaged 13 months).
