Arteriovenous
haemangioma involving submandibular salivary gland.
The many faces of intraosseous
haemangioma: a diagnostic headache.
(22) and Mizhur and Jarnagan (23) report that the most common benign liver lesions resected were
haemangiomas, followed by FNH, which is similar to our series.
Faulty diagnosis and treatment initiation without precautionary measures might have led to an untoward entry into the site of
haemangioma.
It is possible for the
haemangioma itself to become a predisposing factor for haemorrhage; in cases of large or multiple haemangiomata, platelets may become sequestrated and activated in the tumours, resulting a in a consumptive coagulopathy and disseminated intravascular coagulation (the Kasabach-Merrit syndrome) [14].
If everything goes to plan, Stacey will travel to New York for a consultation with Dr Milton Waner, who is a pioneer in treatments for
haemangiomas.
Strawberry
haemangioma birthmarks will commonly disappear by the time a child gets to around nine, although some slight discolouration may remain.
The clinical differential of hepatic AML includes lipoma,
haemangioma, focal nodular hyperplasia hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatic adenoma.
The lesion was reported as either a
haemangioma or a cyst of the occipital bone.
Diagnosis of
haemangioma was suggested but considering her age, differential of a mitotic lesion was also mentioned.
The authors hypothesise that propranolol effectively treats infantile
haemangioma by causing vasoconstriction associated with decreasing VEGF and bFGF, which contribute to angiogenesis (development of the blood cells) and triggering apoptosis (disintegration of capillary endothelial cells).
Mabeta and Davis (4) investigated the mechanism of bleomycin in inducing
haemangioma regression.
