Angiomyoma is defined as a painful, benign subcutaneous or deep dermal tumor composed of mature smooth muscle bundles that are surrounded and interlaced by vascular channels. Smooth muscle neoplasms can be classified into solid leiomyomas, angioleiomyomas (vascular leiomyomas) and epitheloid leiomyomas (leiomyoblastomas). Among these types, the vascular leiomyoma is the most common subtype in t...

Introduction. Thrombotic complications (TC) in different vascular systems dictate the fate of high-risk patients. In cardiological practice, patients with advanced atherosclerotic disease (MFA) represent most vulnerable group. Malignant neoplasm (MN) is one significant risk factors for developing TCs, especially context antineoplastic therapy. The presence differences mechanisms thrombogenesis ...

Adrenal cortical neoplasms in pediatric patients are rare. The clinical manifestations and biologic behavior of these tumors can be quite distinct from their histologically similar counterparts in the adult population. We report 5 cases of adrenocortical neoplasms in young children and review their clinical presentations, pathology, and follow-up data. Pathologic evaluations included histology ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Developmental venous anomalies are considered variants of venous development that, in and of themselves, are of little clinical import. A possible association between intrinsic brain tumors and developmental venous anomalies has been suggested, but a rigorous investigation has not been performed. The aim of this study was to assess any association between developmental ve...

a 22-year-old man presented with exertional dyspnea commencing one month prior to his admission. echocardiography revealed a non-homogenous mass, and the pathology examination of the pericardial biopsy was compatible with angiosarcoma.

BACKGROUND Mutations in the PTEN gene cause two disorders that predispose to cancer, Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba and Cowden syndromes. Some patients with a PTEN mutation have only macrocephaly and autism, but they may still be at risk for neoplasms. Vascular anomalies occur in patients with a PTEN mutation, but they have not been systematically studied or precisely defined. METHOD We analysed th...

findings into 3 groups. The first, nonspecific cutaneous signs and disorders (Table), has already been reported in association with SM exposure as late skin findings. However, owing to lack of a control group in the present descriptive study, and also the multifactorial causes of these disorders, correlation of them with exposure to SM could not be confirmed. Nonetheless, the higher incidence c...

Hypopharyngeal hemangiomas are uncommon neoplasms that can cause dysphagia, recurrent bleeding, and airway obstruction. These lesions are a therapeutic challenge, and surgical resection is the mainstay of therapy. The goal of therapy is directed at control of the tumor and relief of symptoms rather than total eradication of the lesion. Laser therapy is a very useful adjunct in the management of...
