Extracutaneous infantile haemangioma is also Glut1 positive.
AIM To investigate whether extracutaneous infantile haemangioma-like tumours are immunohistochemically similar to cutaneous infantile haemangiomas. METHODS Mammary, salivary gland, liver (one each), and placental (two cases) capillary haemangiomas and typical examples of cutaneous (eight cases) infantile haemangioma were investigated immunohistochemically for alpha smooth muscle actin and Glu...
متن کاملUpdate on Infantile Haemangioma
Article type: Review Article Infantile Haemangiomas (IH) are the most common vascular tumors occurring in early childhood, with a prevalence of approximately 510% of infants. These vascular tumors are divided into two main groups including; infantile haemangioma and vascular malformations. Although, haemangioma of infancy are common, benign and selflimited tumors, a significant percent of these...
متن کاملHaemogenic endothelium in infantile haemangioma.
BACKGROUND Proliferating infantile haemangioma (IH) is a tumour of the microvasculature composed predominantly of immature endothelial cells. The origin of IH is unclear, but it has been shown to express markers of both endothelial and haematopoietic lineages, and a role for endothelial progenitor cells in the aetiology of IH has been suggested. Haemangioblasts are precursors of both endothelia...
متن کاملInfantile Haemangioma – An unusual location
A “haemangioma”(Greek for blood-vessel-growth) of Infancy is a benign overgrowth of blood vessel cells in the skin. It is also known as proliferative haemangioma because it is due to proliferating endothelial cells; these are the cells that line blood vessels. The incidence ranges from 1% in neonates to 12% [1]. These are known to appear soon after birth, proliferate for 8-18 months, and then s...
متن کاملInfantile haemangioma: a complicated disease.
Infantile haemangiomas (IH) are common benign vascular tumors of childhood. They are characterised by rapid growth during the first year of life and slow regression that is usually completed by 7-10 years of age. The underlying mechanism of action of IH is aberrant angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, and involves the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway and vascular endothelial growth factor path...
