angioma

When Heather was in her early 20s, she was diagnosed with a cluster of abnormal blood vessels in her brain - a cavernous angioma.

Because cherry angiomas are small collections of blood vessels, you shouldn’t try to remove them yourself.

But they’re used to treat cherry angiomas, bright red bumps made up of blood vessels, often on the chest.

Among minor defects, the scientists found a five times higher rate of angioma -- benign tumors made up of small blood vessels on or near the surface of the skin.

The angiomas are tumors composed mainly of blood vessels or blood spaces and are observed on the skin of man, where they are called "birthmarks" or "mother marks."
