Congenital hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumor which we may have trouble differentiating from other vascular lesions or tumors. Most of the time, it is mistaken for infantile hemangioma, which has its differences not only in its natural history and development, but most importatly in treatment. In this article, we will describe its clinical description, diagnostic options and correct therapeutical procedures. Furthermore, we mention complications which should not be forgotten about in our clinical practices.

Keywords: congenital hemangioma, diagnosing, ultrasonography, complications, propranolol.
