Eruptive pseudoangiomatosis (EPA) is a benign, asymptomatic and self-resolving disorder that is characterized by the sudden appearance of angiomatous-like papules [1, 2] . The consensus that EPA preferentially affects children had not been queried until Navarro et al. [3] reported their first adult case in 2000. We herein report a frequently relapsing adult case that was successfully controlled...

Hamartomas are benign malformations composed of tissue elements normally found at that site, but which are growing in a disorganized fashion. Cutaneous hamartomas containing only neural and/or neurovascular elements are very rare, with very few case reports in the literature. Herein we describe a case of congenital neural angiomatous hamartoma of the skin.

Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma (EAH) is a rare benign disease that is characterized by an abnormal proliferation of eccrine glands and vascular elements. It is generally congenital, but it can appear before puberty. It usually presents as a single plaque or nodule, but multiple patch-like lesions are also possible. EAH is mostly asymptomatic, but it is sometimes associated with pain or hyperhidr...

Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol | March-April 2009 | Vol 75 | Issue 2 lesion in clinical practice, dermatologists consciously or unconsciously do just the opposite by trying to look for contrast between adjacent localized areas of the skin. By exaggerating contrast, unsharp-masking allows isolation and clearer appreciation of indistinct lesions and better delineation of peripheral borders of ...

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) remains the leading cause of visual loss in adults older than 65 years. Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) is a newly recognized manifestation of exudative AMD that has a poor natural history and demonstrated resistance to treatment with conventional laser photocoagulation. A novel surgical technique has been developed in this pilot series that shows ...

PURPOSE To identify signs occurring more frequently in retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) lesions compared with other types of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration. METHODS In this cross-sectional retrospective study, 30 patients were evaluated. These signs were correlated with the type of CNV: shunting of blood flow to the lesion by fluorescein angiogra...

BACKGROUND Sinonasal angiomatous polyp (SAP) is a rare subtype of sinonasal polyp that might be misdiagnosed as a malignant lesion due to its clinical symptoms. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled the patients who were diagnosed with SAP in our hospital during 2008-2015. We analyzed the clinical symptoms, radiological findings, and pathological features of all patients diagnosed with SAP. R...
