| Summary: | Central hemangioma of the maxilla is a rare entity. Although the mucosal and soft tissue lesions are readily suspected due to their clinical appearance, the intrabony lesions may be difficult to distinguish visually. Early diagnosis of central hemangioma with appropriate and efficient diagnostic modality can help in the effective and more conservative management of the condition, eliminating the risk of hemorrhage following biopsy. Here, we present a case of central hemangioma of the maxilla emphasizing on various radiographic differential diagnosis with advanced imaging techniques. |
