case_images: SWE performed (Aixplorer , Aix-en-Provence, France) using a high-frequency probe (SHL 15-4, average frequency 12 MHz) centred with a quantitative Q-box, with a circular region of interest of 3 mm diameter, on the mass revealed shear wave speed and modulus of elasticity of, respectively, 7.2 (6.6-7.8) m/s and 157.8 (129-181.5) kPa in the transverse plane and 5 (4.6-5.7) m/s and 75.8 (63.1-96.4) kPa in the sagittal plane (Figure 1(b)). Surgical excision of the tumour (Figure 1(c)) was carried out and the histopathological examination revealed a deep lobular capillary haemangioma (Figure 1(d)).
