Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome is a rare condition characterised bymultiorgan venousmalformations, in particular of cutaneous area and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. We report here a child with chronic iron deficiency anaemia, melena and skin lesions. She had severe hypochromic microcytic anaemia. Upper and lower endoscopy revealed hundreds of red-bluish polypoid lesions involving the entire...

Abdominal vascular syndromes are rare diseases. Although such syndromes vary widely in terms of symptoms and etiologies, certain imaging findings are characteristic. Depending on their etiology, they can be categorized as congenital-including blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome, Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome, and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome)-or compressive-includi...

Pediatric and inherited neurovascular syndromes have diverse presentations and treatments. Although many of these diseases are uncommon, they must be included in the differential diagnosis for children with strokes or hemorrhages. In neurosurgical practice, familial cavernous malformations, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), and moyamoya are the most frequently encountered of these di...

BACKGROUND Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare condition which usually manifests as multiple hemangioma-like skin and gastrointestinal lesions. The latter often present with chronic bleeding. There is no consensus regarding the optimal management of such patients. Although rare, complications such as intestinal intussusception might occur, demanding surgical treatment. Postoperati...

Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare disease associated with multiple venous malformations in the skin, gastrointestinal tract, and other organs [1], which usually presents with extensive hemorrhage or anemia [2]. Different therapeutic strategies have been proposed. We describe a case of BRBNS involving the small bowel, which was treated using a combined surgical and endoscopic app...

The blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) or Bean syndrome is a relatively rare congenital disorder characterized by the presence of multiple cutaneous and visceral venous malformations, particularly in the digestive tract; the lesions progressively increase in number and size. These patients, particularly in the severe cases, typically develop intense chronic iron deficiency anemia secondary...
