| pubmed-article:7635879 | pubmed:abstractText | Vascular tumors of the upper extremity comprise a wide and varied group of pathologies. A variety of benign and malignant tumors exist. Proper diagnosis is imperative for the proper management of these lesions. On occasion, diagnosis can be made by a careful history and physical examination.
