Abstract

Vascular anomalies can be seen in a disseminated or diffuse state to involve multiple superficial and deep sites. Large and diffuse lesions are known to induce a hemorrhagic tendency. The authors present, which they believe is the first case of multiorgan hemangiomas with rupture at multiple sites, along with hitherto unreported cardiac thrombus, with arterial and venous thromboembolic events, ultimately ending with the patient's demise.

Keywords
