ANGIOMA - 2 reference results
Angiomas are benign tumors that are made up of small blood vessels or lymph vessels.
Presentation
They usually appear at or near the surface of the skin. Angiomas may appear anywhere on the body, and may be considered bothersome depending on their location. However, they may be present as symptoms of another more serious disorder, such as cirrhosis. When they are removed, it is generally for cosmetic reasons.Types
