Capillary hemangiomas of the testis are extremly rare tumors. We reported a case of intratesticular hemangioma, unusually localisation of this vascular benign neoplasm. The patient was 12 year old boy, with hydrocele and a palpabile testicular mass. Scrotal sonography revealed varicocele and hydrocele in the left scrotal sac. There was a solid hypoechogenic zone 5 mm in diameter in the left tes...

INTRODUCTION The development of various benign oral mucosal lesions associated with dental implants, such as pyogenic granuloma or peripheral giant cell granuloma, has been rarely reported. However, the occurrence of vascular diseases, such as hemangioma, related to dental implants has not been explored in the literature. In this study, we report a case of co-development of pyogenic granuloma a...

BACKGROUND Capillary hemangiomas, the most common tumors in young children, consist of proliferating capillary vessels and endothelial cells. These tumors also contain large numbers of mast cells, compared with the normal surrounding skin or tissue. We have recently shown that stem cell factor (SCF), the gene product of the murine steel locus, can act as a chemoattractant for mast cells. In thi...

the treatment of juxtapapillary retinal capillary hemangiomas (jrchs) is still a therapeutic dilemma without established guidelines. because of the location of these hemangiomas on or adjacent to the optic nerve, treatment is difficult and complex, especially when jrchs are located in the papillomacular bundle. this manuscript reviews the clinically relevant data on literature regarding the tre...

The purpose of this study was to report the case of a capillary hemangioma in a 12-month-old female. The lesion appeared: (1) erythematous to deep purple in appearance; (2) dome-shaped; (3) partially blanched with pressure; and (4) rapidly enlarged in the oropharyngeal region. Magnetic resonance imaging studies demonstrated the affected area and adjacent soft tissues. The lesion was diagnosed a...

Epithelial tumors of appendix are not so common, and mesenchymal tumors of the appendix are even less common. Capillary hemangioma of the appendix is an extremely rare event and to the best of our knowledge only 4 cases have been reported in the English literature so far. In this case report we want to explain our experience with an extremely rare occurrence of capillary hemangioma of appendix ...

CLINICAL CASE A 22-year-old woman patient, diagnosed with an inclusion cyst of the conjunctiva in the nasal sector of the left eye, who after 2 shot/needle injections in the lesion came to our clinic with a dense subconjunctival hemorrhage in four quadrants and with severe pain. After excision biopsy, a capillary hemangioma of the conjunctiva was diagnosed. DISCUSSION Conjunctival capillary h...

CLINICAL CASE Man carrier of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene, with long-onset loss of vision in left eye. He had a retinal capillary hemangioma (HCR) and diffuse cystic edema in posterior pole. The systemic study revealed bilateral kidney tumors. Laser photocoagulation was performed which produced a subretinal and vitreous hemorrhage that required vitrectomy. DISCUSSION Retinal capillary hem...

In recent years advances have been made in the clinical and genetic aspects of von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL). Retinal capillary hemangioma is the most common manifestation of VHL disease and, therefore, ophthalmologists are frequently involved in the care of patients with this disease. The incidence of VHL disease is approximately 1 in 40,000 live births. It is estimated that there are approx...

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of oral propranolol in the treatment of infantile peri-orbital and/ or orbital capillary hemangioma. Methods: We conducted a prospective study at Prince Rashid Bin Al Hassan military hospital between 5 of August 2012 and 29 of January 2013. Eleven patients with peri-orbital and/or orbital capillary hemangiomas were included in this study. All patients underwen...
