Capillary hemangioma of the breast in a Sudanese child

Capillary hemangiomas of the beast in female children is a very rare pathology. In the literature, there are only three cases reported with this pathology. We report an 11 months girl presented with an enlarged left breast (or areola) and was initially diagnosed as a case of an inadequately treated neonatal mastitis, but later on, on performing an incisional biopsy it proved to be a capillary hemangioma.
