Abstract
Cavernous hemangioma is the most common orbital tumor in
adult. There is lot of literatures for clinicopathological features
of this tumor. These tumors had been studied for the model of
angiogenesis in many of the experimental setups. We present
a case of 34‑year‑old male with this tumor in the left eye with
computerized tomography evidence. Postsurgical laboratory
findings gave interesting evidence of tumor angiogenesis with
tumor endothelial cells and sprouting of the small vessels
endothelial cells. Podosome rosette could be conceptualized from
the characteristic patterns seen in the tumor.
