Pediatric Vascular Tumors and Malformations.

Pediatric vascular tumors and malformations, comprising a broad category of lesions often referred to as vascular anomalies, are a heterogenous group of clinicopathologically distinct entities. Pathologists, clinicians, and radiologists have traditionally lumped these lesions under the generic term, hemangioma, sometimes qualified by modifiers, such as capillary or cavernous. Advances in unders...

Vascular tumors of the hand

Vascular malformations They are classified according to the type of vascular tissue affected. They may be capillary, capillovenous, venous, arterial, or lymphatic. Capillary angiomas include telangiectasias (a central vivid red point with fine, spreading branches), angiokeratomas (small, dark-red structures covered by hyperkeratosis), and flat angiomas (the classic “port wine” stain), located m...

Vascular basophilia in ocular and orbital tumors.

The occurrence of vascular basophilia in ocular tumors has been a selective histologic feature of retinoblastomas. We recently observed a metastatic oat-cell carcinoma to the choroid which also demonstrated such a vascular hematoxyphilia. Histologic review of a variety of ocular and orbital metastatic carcinomas failed to yield a similar basophilic pattern. Examination of 100 consecutive retino...
