Statistical analysis was performed using the Student's t test.

Symptomatology, size, and proximity of the hemangioma to the adjacent bone were compared with the presence or absence of osseous change. The pattern and extent of the osseous change were categorized as periosteal, cortical, or medullary. We retrospectively reviewed the radiographs and MR images of 35 patients with soft-tissue hemangiomas of the extremities. The purpose of this study was to describe the findings of MR imaging and radiographic changes that occur in osseous structures adjacent to soft-tissue hemangiomas of the extremities and to correlate them with patient symptomatology, the size of the hemangiomas, and their proximity to adjacent bone.
