Objectives: To discuss the non-surgical strategies for management of cervical lymphangiomas in children, with particular attention to sclerotherapy. Methods: A literature review last fifteen years about sclerotherapy children was performed and main sclerosing agents were reported, highlighting nature, mechanism action rates success, recurrences complications related each every substance; furthe...

The clinical, pathological, and ultrastructural features of two cases of peritoneal cystic mesothelioma occurring in men were studied. The results of immunohistochemical staining for CAM 5.2, epithelial membrane antigen, carcinoembryonic antigen, and Factor VIII related antigen are reported for the first time and compared with the staining results of two peritoneal cystic lymphangiomas. Althoug...

Lymphangioma IS a congenital malformation of the lymphatic vessels. It usually manifests at birth or before the age of 2 years. The neck is the most common site. Some lymphangiomas grow steadily and may cause airway obstruction, feeding difficulties and cosmetic problems. Recurrent inflammation and sudden haemorrhage are potential life threatening complications especially in cervico-mediastinal...

Lymphangiomas of the larynx are quite rare and even rarer in adults. Isolated cavernous lymphangioma in the laryngeal ventricle was diagnosed in a 47-year-old woman. The patient presented with hoarseness with a history of three months. Direct laryngoscopy performed under general anesthesia showed a large, smooth, gray-reddish tumor above the right vocal fold, originating from the right ventricl...

Adrenal cystic lymphangiomas (ACLs) are rare and benign vascular tumors that are likely to imitate other adrenal cystic lesions on computed tomography (CT) images. We performed a retrospective analysis of the CT appearance and clinical data of all adrenal masses diagnosed by pathological tests at our institute and conducted a systematic review of all previous ACL reports. Although rare, ACLs sh...

The incidence of lymphangiomas in the gastrointestinal tract is low, particularly in the colon and rectum, and most cases are solitary. Lymphangiomatosis of the colon are encountered infrequently with only one report in the English literature, and polypectomy was performed for the diagnosis in that case report. However, trends in the diagnosis of lymphangiomatosis of colon have been changing si...

Results Fetal abnormalities were observed in 45 (3. 7 %) of the cases. We were able to diagnose all the cases of hydrocephalus and ventriculomegaly, cranial menigocele, spina bifida, cleft lip and palate, micrognathia, cyst of lacrimal duct, hydronephrosis, renal agenesis simple renal cyst, clubhands, talipes, polydactyly, rib agenesis, diaphragmatic hernia, CCAM, atrial and atrioventricular se...
