Rare Case of Capillary Hemangioma of Bilateral Lower Limb: A Case Report (original) (raw)

Superficial Spreading Capillary Hemangioma: Case Report

Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (English Edition), 2007

in which superficial spreading capillary hemangioma was diagnosed in a 23-year-old woman. Case Description A 23-year-old Caucasian woman with no relevant personal or family history visited our department due to a lesion on the plantar surface of the left foot. The lesion had appeared 10 years previously, was asymptomatic, and had not grown over the intervening period. Physical examination revealed a freely movable, light-brown, soft papule with a diameter of 1.2 cm and a smooth surface (Figure 1). We performed a biopsy of the lesion and the histopathologic study revealed a conserved epidermis with an underlying proliferation of lobular groups of capillary vessels with loose stroma, located in the dermal papillae (Figures 2 and 3). Examination of the rest of the dermis revealed no lymphocytic infiltrate and there were no other pathologic findings. Immunostaining for CD31 was positive in endothelial cells (Figures 4 and 5).

Intramuscular hemangioma of the foot: A case report and review of the literature

Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2010

Intramuscular hemangiomas (IHs) are rare benign neoplasms usually seen in children, adolescents and young adults. Although lower extremities are the commonest localization, the localization at the foot is extremely rare since only a few cases have been reported. We report a case of mixed type IH of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle in a 12-year-old boy who was treated with surgical excision, with wide surgical margins.

Intramuscular capillary-type hemangioma: radiologic–pathologic correlation

Pediatric Radiology, 2014

Background Infantile hemangiomas demonstrate a pattern of proliferative growth in infancy followed by a slow phase of involution. In contrast a rare type of vascular tumor, intramuscular capillary-type hemangioma, usually presents beyond the period of infancy with nonspecific symptoms and no evidence of involution.

Lobular capillary hemangioma: A case report

International Journal of Medical and Dental Case Reports

Lobular capillary hemangioma also known as pyogenic granuloma is a rapidly growing benign neoplasm of oral cavity and mucous membrane. The present case is about a 65-year-old male patient who had reported with a chief complaint of pain in the right posterior back tooth region since 2-3. Lobular capillary hemangioma is normally presented on the gingiva as a response local irritation such as calculus, fractured tooth, minor trauma, rough dental restorations, and foreign materials. Here, in this case, we excised the lesion and the histopathological report confirms the diagnosis.

Synovial hemangioma: a pictorial essay of two cases

International Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2017

Synovial hemangiomas are uncommon benign tumours of vascular origin arising in relation to the synovium of joints or bursae. Usually, a long-standing history of pain and joint swelling is present affecting children and adolescents especially in the knee or elbow joint. We present two cases of knee swelling diagnosed as synovial hemangioma.

Capillary hemangioma – A review

Clinical and Experimental Vision and Eye Research

Capillary hemangioma (CH) also known as strawberry nevi can present as a small red raised isolated lesion. Imaging techniques such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be used to differentiate CH from other vascular tumors, to identify the extent of tumor. Management should be customized according to the age of the child, extent and size of the tumor(s), growth rate, depth (superficial, deep or mixed).

Hemangioendothelioma with an epithelioid phenotype arising in hemangioma of the fibula

Skeletal Radiology, 2005

The classification of certain vascular bone tumors that show an epithelioid cytologic appearance remains confusing, with overlap in features of epithelioid hemangioma, hemangioendothelioma and epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. Radiographs of a 27-year-old woman who presented with ankle pain showed an expanded lytic-sclerotic lesion in the distal left fibula. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an intramedullary lesion with a small lateral intracortical component. The lesion was hypoto isointense to muscle on T1weighted images and heterogeneously hyperintense on T2-weighted images. Initial incisional biopsy was inconclusive. Open biopsy showed hemangioendothelioma with epithelioid morphology, and the lesion was completely resected with reconstruction using a peroneal fibular rotation graft. Examination of the resected specimen showed focal hemangioendothelioma with an epithelioid phenotype arising in a hemangioma. This case illustrates the difficulty and pitfalls of making the correct diagnosis on the basis of a small biopsy specimen.
