Hemangiolymphangioma is a malformation of both lymphatic and blood vessels. While a hemangiolymphangioma is a benign lesion, its propensity to invade underlying tissues and to recur locally distinguishes it from the simple lymphangioma or hemangioma. Hemangiolymphangiomas are uncommon developmental anomalies and intraosseous hemangiolymphangioma of the mandible is a relatively rare condition: when it occurs, the clinical and radiographic presentation are often nonspecific. The author presents a case of hemangiolymphangioma in mandible.

PHACE association is a rare neurocutaneous condition in which facial hemangiomas associate with a spectrum of posterior fossa malformations, arterial cerebrovascular anomalies, cardiovascular anomalies, and eye anomalies. We reported a case of PHACE association in a premature infant showing facial, intracranial, and oropharyngeal hemangiomas with evidence of the Dandy-Walker variant and complicated cardiovascular anomalies, including a right-sided aortic arch and an atypical patent ductus arteriosus arising from a tortuous left subclavian artery. To our knowledge, intracranial hemangiomas are rare in PHACE association, and a concomitant oropharyngeal hemangioma has not been previously reported in the PHACE association literature. In infants presenting with large, plaque-like facial hemangiomas, it is important to conduct active cardiovascular and neurological evaluations. Special attention should be given to the laryngoscopic examination to search for additional hemangiomas in the airway.

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) known as Masson's hemangioma is a rare benign reactive vascular lesion caused by the abnormal proliferation of endothelial cells. The lesion occurs most commonly in the fingers, head and neck, but very rare in the foot. We report a case of IPEH in the foot treated with operative excision.

Pyogenic granuloma in larynx is very rare. It is benign disease, and histopathologically it looks like capillary-rich hemangioma. The most common etiology of pyogenic granuloma is laryngeal trauma, usually related to intubation. It can be treated with speech therapy, medication, or surgical resection. We experienced a case of large pyogenic granuloma in larynx with feeding vessels of a 24-year-old woman. When she visited us, she suffered from dyspnea. We had performed excision of laryngeal mass by laryngeal microsurgery emergently. She was diagnosed with pyogenic granuloma in larynx after operation.

A 1-year-old castrated mixed-breed dog presented with diffuse, purple lesions arranged in an irregular patchy pattern, with a slight elevation on the right hindlimb extending from the tarsus joint to the upper region of the thigh. Dermatological examinations and fungal and bacterial cultures revealed no infectious agents. The therapeutic response to antibiotics and antifungal agents was negative. A histopathology examination of the lesion revealed vascular proliferation with vasodilation and numerous varying-sized vessels. Mast-cell-dominated perivascular cuffing was also noted. The dog was diagnosed with cutaneous angiomatosis due to diffuse lesions and the histopathology findings of hemangioma.

Pyogenic granuloma is one of the benign vascular neoplasm. The nomenclature is misnomer because pyogenic granuloma is not related to infection and granuloma. It represent histopathologically lobular capillary hemangioma. It is most commonly occurred on skin followed by oral cavity such as gingiva, lip, tongue and buccal mucosa. Herein, we report a extremely rare case of pyogenic granuloma which was developed on larynx of a 81 year-old male with review of literature.

Primary tumors arising from the external auditory canal (EAC) are rare. We describe two cases of mass lesions within the EAC causing slowly progressive hearing loss without otorrhea or otalgia. Otoendoscopic examination demonstrated total obstruction of the EAC, and pure tone audiometry revealed conductive hearing loss. Based on the findings of the histopathologic examination, one patient was diagnosed with venous hemangioma that was treated using surgical resection, and the other patient was diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that was treated using external-beam radiation therapy. Although primary tumors in the EAC are rare, both benign tumors such as venous hemangiomas and malignant lesions such as DLBCL should be considered as possible differential diagnoses of mass lesions in the EAC.

We call hemangiomatosis if hemangioma arises multifocally from single or multiple organs. It develops predominantly on liver, and there are just few cases of hemangiomatosis from greater omentum and mesentery. Herein, we present the imaging and histopathological findings including CT and MRI images of a 62-year-old male patient with a hemangiomatosis on liver, greater omentum and mesentery.

Vascular malformations are structural abnormalities that are thought to result from errors in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis during embryogenesis. Vascular malformations of the scalp present unique management challenges due to aesthetic and functional implications. This review examines the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and management techniques for six common types of vascular malformations of the face and scalp : infantile hemangioma, capillary malformations, venous malformations, lymphatic malformations, arteriovenous malformations, and arteriovenous fistulas. These lesions range from common to rare, and have very different natural histories and management paradigms. There has been increasing understanding of the molecular pathways that are altered in association with these vascular lesions and these molecular targets may represent novel strategies of treating lesions that have historically been approached from a structural perspective only.
