BACKGROUND Hemangioma of the prostate gland is extremely rare and only a few cases have been reported. There have been several cases of hemangioma of posterior urethra, urinary bladder and periprostatic plexus in the literature, all presenting with hematuria or hematospermia. Diagnosis of prostatic hemangioma is difficult due to its rarity and unspecific symptoms such as hematuria, hematospermi...

hemangioma of the rib is a rare benign vascular tumor. herein, we report a 63-year-old man presenting with hemangioma of the left sixth rib. an osteolytic eccentric expansive mass with calcification and focal cortical disruption was detected on chest computed tomography (ct). the mass showed low 2-deoxy-2-[18f]-fluoro-d-glucose (18f-fdg) avidity on positron emission tomography. the patient unde...

A Cavrnous Hemangioma is an abnormal tangle of tightly packed thin walled capillaries that are probe to bleeding.

Background: Infantile hemangiomas (IH) are the most prevalent benign tumors in children, predominantly girls. Most IH cases do not require treatment due to spontaneous involution, but 10% of early size, location, and complications. Purpose: This study tried define profile, clinical aspects, therapy Dr. Zainoel Abidin General Hospital, Banda Aceh. Methods: A descriptive approach using a retrospe...

Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) is a rare, sporadic neurocutaneous disorder. It is typically characterized by unilateral, posterior leptomeningeal angiomas that calcify, glaucoma, and facial portwine tains. Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital syndrome characterized by ipsilateral cutaneous capillary malformations, venous varicosities, and bony or soft tissue overgrowth of the affe...

The common causes of orbital masses in pediatric age group include pseudotumour, lymphomas, hemangioma and dermoid cyst. Orbital tuberculosis is rare especially in children. We report a case of 5 year old child who presented with proptosis and gross diminution of vision due to orbital tuberculoma. Ocular examination of the left eye revealed proptosis with the eyeball displaced downwards and for...

Cowden syndrome (CS) is a rare dominantly inherited multisystem disorder, characterized by an extraordinary malignant potential. In 80% of cases, the human tumor suppressor gene phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is mutated. We present a case of a 17-year-old boy with genetically confirmed CS and Graves' disease (GD). At the age of 15, he presented with intention tremor, palpitations, and ma...

Background: Intracranial capillary hemangiomas are rare, particularly in adults, and diagnosis can be challenging. The literature lacks visualization of intracranial hemangioma growth over time. Here we document a de novo hemangioma, initially interpreted radiologically as glioma. Methods: We report case 64 year old male with history HIV, recent Lyme disease unconfirmed prior COVID-19 infection...

OBJECTIVE The mechanism of neovascularization during the proliferative phase of infantile hemangioma is poorly understood. It is known that circulating bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) form new blood vessels in ischemic tissues using mediators regulated by the transcription factor, HIF-1alpha. Mobilization of EPCs is enhanced by VEGF-A, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, a...

INTRODUCTION Hemangioma is the most common benign tumor of the liver. Most cases are asymptomatic and do not require treatment. A hemangioma can rarely be pedunculated; as a result, it may undergo torsion and infarction, which can make it symptomatic. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 45-year-old woman with acute abdominal pain due to torsion of a giant pedunculated hepatic hemangioma...
