BACKGROUND Congenital hemangioma of the diaphragm is an extremely rare disease in childhood. METHODS We report a newborn presenting with progressive respiratory distress and massive right hydrothorax due to congenital diaphragmatic hemangioma, requiring sustained ventilation support and chest drainage. The angiography revealed that the giant diaphragmatic hemangioma was supplied by the right ...

Abstract Vascular anomalies grouped into vascular tumors (hemangioma) (HI) and malformation (VM) are benign lesions that difficult to distinguish from one another clinically often confused with each other at histopathology. This confusing terminology leads improper diagnosis, illogical treatment, misdirected research. study aimed GLUT 1, S-100, nerve bundle differentiate hemangioma malformation...

Hemangioma is a rare, non-reactive, benign vascular tumor, characterized by endothelial cell proliferations and results from malformation. mostly occurs on head neck skin regresses spontaneously within 5-10 years in 50-90% of cases. However, oral lesions show less regression than lesions. The most commonly affected area tongue palatal mucosa, rarely observed jaw bones. Diagnosis based anamnesis...

Hemangioma is a benign vascular neoplasm of unknown etiology. In this study, we generated an endothelial-specific PyMT gene-expressing transgenic mouse model that spontaneously develops hemangioma. Based on this transgenic model, a specific binding between PyMT and the core AC dimer of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) was verified in hemangioma vascular endothelial cells. The binding between PyMT ...

Hemangioma is the most common congenital benign liver tumor. It affects mostly female, with incidence of 0.4- 20%. Giant hemangioma induce Kasabach Merritt syndome, a life threathening coagulation disorder which occur due to consumptive coagulopathy: trombocyte sequestration and agregation inside hemangioma. The mortality rate around 60%, cause multiorgan complication may end up sepsis. core ma...

BACKGROUND Infantile hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors primarily found on the skin in 10% of the pediatric population. The etiology of this disease is largely unknown and while large scale genomic studies have examined the transcriptomes of infantile hemangioma tumors as a whole, no study to date has compared the global gene expression profiles of pure infantile hemangioma endothelial cell...

Hemangioma is a benign tumor composed of blood vessels. It classified into three types: cavernous, capillary, and mixed. Intraosseous hemangioma type cavernous that originates within the bone. very rare for it to originate from inferior turbinate. Furthermore, we report new case recurrence after incomplete excision. The patient was 60-year-old woman who had been experiencing left nasal obstruct...

Sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is extremely rare.  Herein, a case of sclerosing hemangioma of the lung in a 44-year-old woman is reported.  On admission, the patient complained of pain in the left lower neck and upper chest.  Chest x-ray revealed a mass in lingular lobe of the left lung.  The patient underwent surgery and a mass was removed through left posterolateral thoracotomy.  Pathologi...

Sclerosed hemangioma is a rare variant of hemangioma. We present herein a case of hepatic sclerosed hemangioma. Imaging studies including ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a mass located between the liver and the stomach, with marginally streaky enhancement. A malignant neoplasm originating from the mesentery was suspected preoperatively....

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this study was to establish the MR imaging characteristics of choroidal hemangioma and to compare them with those of uveal melanoma. METHODS Among 41 patients examined at 1.5 T (4-cm surface coil, T1-weighted and fast spin-echo T2-weighted sequences), 25 had uveal melanoma and 16 had circumscribed choroidal hemangioma. After i.v. bolus injection of gadopentet...
