Vascular malformations of uterus are extremely rare, benign lesions. A survey of the literature identified fewer than 50 cases of hemangioma of the uterus. Here, we describe a rare case of a cavernous hemangiomatous polyp in 36 years old non pregnant wowan with endometrial polypectomy. A vascular lesions localized to a portion of the uterus may be clinically silent during pregnancy and throughout delivery thus making it difficult to detect. Though rare, it may be an important differential in any female patient who presents with non-responsive uterine bleeding and/or unremitting pelvic pain.
