A 4‐mo‐old child presented with a 20‐day history of swelling of the left cheek. Fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy revealed a spindle‐cell neoplasm with a bloody background. Subsequent surgical excision confirmed the presence of a juvenile hemangioma (juvenile hemangioendothelioma). The FNA biopsy and surgical pathology findings are presented along with a discussion of the differential diagnosis of this relatively rare neoplasm. Diagn Cytopathol 1987;3:152–155.
