Capillary hemangioma or strawberry hemangioma are most common on the face, scalp, back, or chest. They may be absent at birth, and develop at several weeks. They usually grow rapidly, remain a fixed size, and then subside. Cavernous hemangiomas (angioma cavernosum, cavernoma) are similar to strawberry hemangiomas but are more deeply situated. They may appear as a red-blue spongy mass of tissue filled with blood.
