Because of the rapid onset of thrombocytopenia and anemia, the patient required urgent splenectomy with subsequent resolution of the blood dyscrasias. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A splenectomy was performed, and the patient was discharged without any additional complications. [karger.com]

It most commonly presents as a superficial or deep soft tissue mass with associated cutaneous lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The American Journal of Surgical Pathology: April 1993 Original Articles: PDF Only Abstract We report the clinical and pathological features of nine distinctive, but relatively unknown, vascular tumors of infancy and childhood presenting as soft tissue [journals.lww.com]

Wick Case of the Week #401: Low power view CD31 (20x) CD34 SMA Vimentin Images hosted on other servers: "Cannon ball" appearance Slit-like lumens VEGFR3 Tonsillar mass Back to top [pathologyoutlines.com]

Histopathological sections from the excised tonsillar mass were reviewed and showed a tumor composed of irregular, infiltrating lobules of spindle cells arranged in kaposiform architecture with slit-like, crescentic vessels. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A 2-year-old male child referred to us with history of sore throat, dyspnoea and right-sided neck swelling off and on, since birth, was clinicoradiologically diagnosed with recurrent tonsillitis, including right sided peritonsillar abscess, for which [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This tumor clinically presented as persistent tachypnea and was unresponsive to conventional therapy with vincristine and steroids but responded dramatically to Sirolimus with almost complete regression on follow-up. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

He had experienced lower abdominal pain and fever for several days. Contrast-enhanced CT images revealed a well-enhanced mass involving several large and small cystic parts with thin, enhanced walls at the sigmoid colon. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We described the case of a 1-month-old female who had abdominal distention and bilious vomiting. She was suspected as intestinal obstruction after diagnostic work up. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We described the case of a 1-month-old female who had abdominal distention and bilious vomiting. She was suspected as intestinal obstruction after diagnostic work up. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

[…] fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT findings in an adult patient with KH associated with lymphangiomatosis involving mesentery and ileum.A 22-year-old female complained of a 9-month history of intermittent melena, weakness, and palpitation [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Complications included one patient with flush on face, one patient with needle scars, and one patient with a small area of local tissue necrosis. CONCLUSION: Absolute ethanol therapy presents a safe option in the treatment of KMP. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Common presenting features included enlarging cutaneous lesion (75%), thrombocytopenia (56%), and musculoskeletal pain or decreased function (23%). Cutaneous KHE favored the extremities, especially overlying joints. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Kasabach-Merritt syndrome is a rare type of vascular tumor with aggressive behavior in association with thrombocytopenia and consumptive coagulopathy. A standard guideline has not been established to date. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Despite the locally aggressive behavior and the potential for lethal complications due to consumptive coagulopathy in the setting of KMP, metastatic spread of KHE seldom occurs [ 1 ]. [karger.com]

Thus, the designation of hemangioendothelioma infers to its local aggressive behavior, but no longer for a metastatic potential. [nature.com]

Herein, we present an extremely uncommon case of KHE occurring in tonsil of a child, associated with a neck swelling, but unassociated with KMP. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We treated a 32-year-old woman with a right breast mass that was diagnosed based on pathologic examination as a KHE. We performed operations several times because of recurrence of KHE and finally performed mastectomy despite the patient's young age. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We report the case of a 10-year-old boy with a KHE of his right distal thigh who was unable to walk without assistance due to fibrotic change and right knee contracture. He had no laboratory evidence of KMP at the time of representation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Unfortunately, a regrowth of KHE with KMS was observed 4 months after the cessation of treatment and the patient thereafter died from an intracranial hemorrhage and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, which is a complication related to repetitive radiation [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to demonstrate that KHE is associated with a clonal karyotypic abnormality. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
