Endovascular therapies have become a mainstream option for treatment of many extracranial vascular disorders and is the preferred management strategy for vascular injury secondary to head and neck malignancy. The interventionalist must be familiar with the clinical trials as basis for the management of extracranial atherosclerotic disease as well as understanding the therapeutic options, risks,...

Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is a human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) driven neoplasm with varying morphologic features and attendant diagnostic dilemma. This study presents the trend of KS in our environment different variants, view to arousing awareness reducing missed delayed diagnosis. accounted for 18.34% 59.66% vascular neoplasms malignant neoplasms, respectively most occurring background immunodefi...

= A bs t rac t = Infantile hemangioendothelioma which is the most common primary vascular neoplasm of the liver in infancy and early childhood, frequently poses diagnostic problems due to its characteristics, and thus the authors performed a retrospective clinicopathological analysis of 5 cases of infantile hemangioendothelioma of the liver. All the cases were found before 6 months of age, and ...

Distant metastasis of gastrointestinal endocrine neoplasm is resistant to currently available treatments. Because hematogenic metastasis is dominant, anti-angiogenic drugs are expected to be a novel therapy for this neoplasm. In the present study, the therapeutic effect of vascular endothelial growth factor neutralizing antibody (VEGFAb) on liver metastasis of an endocrine neoplasm was investig...

conclusions we described a rare case of a usually aggressive thyroid angiosarcoma in a patient living in a non-alpine region, with an unusual favorable outcome after the operation and radiotherapy. case presentation an asymptomatic 61-year-old woman presented with a right lobe thyroid nodule with fine needle aspiration cytology indicating “suspicious for malignancy” was reported in our study. h...

Intracranial astrocytomas are relatively uncommon in dogs and optic nerve astrocytomas even more so. This neoplasm should be considered as differential in canine patients with vision loss, retinal detachment, ocular mass, and histopathologic findings of infiltrative fusiform to polygonal glial cells possibly associated with glomeruloid vascular proliferation.

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) is a rare vascular neoplasm that can be potentially low malignant and mainly affects infants and adolescents. This tumor usually is seen in the skin, soft tissue, and retroperitoneum. This study is a case of KHE in the long bone of the ulna. The subject was a 7-year-old female patient with osteolytic lesion in the forearm without cutaneous lesions. Histolog...

Angioleiomyoma being a type of true smooth muscle gastrointestinal tumors can lead to serious life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding. We report a case of 21-year-old male patient with recurrent midgut bleeding. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed highly vascular small bowel neoplasm. The patient underwent laparotomy with bowel resection and recovered uneventfully. Histopathology revealed jejunal ...

A case of ciliary body neurilemmoma is described. This neoplasm is extremely rare in the uveal tract and has been reported only once in the ciliary body. After extensive clinical studies of the rapidly growing tumour enucleation was performed. Subsequent histological examination showed typical features of highly vascular benign neurilemmoma. The main clinical and pathological features are repor...

INTRODUCTION The differential diagnosis of cutaneous ulcers is broad, including infection, neoplasm, vascular disease, trauma, and inflammatory processes such as pyoderma gangrenosum. Nodulo-ulcerative lesions on an extremity are a common presentation of sporotrichosis, an infection with a saprophytic dimorphic fungus. A high index of suspicion for infection is required when chronic ulcers do n...
