Hemangiomas are proliferative lesions characterized by increased endothelial cell turnover, may be present anywhere in the body, and rarely involve the skeleton. It is extremely uncommon to come across a case of Hemangioma of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and even more rare to find a case of bilateral Hemangioma of TMJ. As a result of the low incidence of such anomalies in the region of the...

Infantile hemangioma is a common tumor of infancy. Although most hemangiomas spontaneously regress, treatment is indicated based on complications, risk to organ development and function, and disfigurement. The serendipitous discovery of propranolol, a non-selective β-adrenergic receptor blocker, as an effective means to regress hemangiomas has made this a first-line therapy for hemangioma patie...

BACKGROUND Senile hemangioma, so-called cherry angioma, is known as the most common vascular anomalies specifically seen in the aged skin. The pathogenesis of its abnormal angiogenesis is still unclear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In this study, we found that senile hemangioma consisted of clusters of proliferated small vascular channels in upper dermis, indicating that this tumor is categ...

introduction: malignant mesenchymal tumors of the larynx are rare. one type of malignant mesenchymal tumor is synovial sarcoma with unknown histogenesis, which occurs predominantly in the lower extremities of young adults. the head and neck region is a relatively rare location. there are few cases of malignant mesenchymal tumors with laryngeal localization in literature.  case report: in this r...

Analyzing the synovial fluid is one of the common methods to diagnose the articular problems to detect the stage and express the prognosis. Such gross, cytological, and biochemical analysis of synovial fluids can aid in the diagnosis of various joint diseases. Objectives: Normal values for synovial fluid in the camels have been described previously; however, there are no reports regarding conce...

A 12-YEAR-OLD male child had a history of swelling in the left knee joint since age 4 years. There was no pain or other constitutional symptoms. On physical examination the swelling was soft and boggy. There was no tenderness and the movements were not painful or restricted. Results of routine blood investigations were within normal limits. Aspiration of the knee joint did not reveal any fluid....

PURPOSE To report late recurrence of orbital cavernous hemangioma in a patient ten years after complete resection of the primary tumor. CASE REPORT A 32-year-old woman with a history of progressive visual loss and proptosis underwent lateral orbitotomy for resection of a large cavernous hemangioma. Ten years later, proptosis recurred and the patient developed progressive ocular deviation. Ima...

Intramuscular hemangioma, an infrequent but important cause of musculoskeletal pain, is often difficult to establish the diagnosis clinically. This report describes a case of a 32-yr-old woman who presented with severe left calf pain for 10 yr. Initial conservative treatments consisting of intramuscular electrical stimulation, herb medication, acupuncture, and intramuscular lidocaine injection ...

Sinusoidal hemangioma is a distinctive subset of a group of lesions known collectively as cavernous hemangiomas. Clinically, it develops in adults, predominantly females, and presents as a solitary, painless, bluish, deep dermal or subcutaneous nodule. Lipoma is the most common benign soft tissue tumor. Lipoma is distinguished from sinusoidal hemangioma on both clinical and histological grounds...

Benign hemangiomas and vascular malformations are the most common tumor of infants and children [1]. Skull involvement is rare compared with soft-tissue involvement. A plethora of classifications applied to these lesions has led to an imperfect and suboptimal understanding of them. Burrows et al. [2] describe angiographic differences between hemangiomas and vascular malformations that corrobora...
