Presentation
In addition to cutaneous involvement, vascular lesions of the GIT may also be present. [jiaomr.in]
Clinical description GVMs may be present at birth, and slowly expand during childhood. New small lesions appear with time. They are usually hyperkeratotic, raised and nodular with a cobblestone surface. Color varies from pink to purplish-dark blue. [orpha.net]
Some gene mutations are acquired during a person's lifetime and are present only in certain cells. These changes, which are not inherited, are called somatic mutations. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]
After discussion of pathogenesis, classification, and differential diagnosis from vascular tumors, the clinical features of CVMs are described and illustrated, covering both the various forms (venous, arteriovenous, lymphatic, capillary, and mixed) and presentations [books.google.de]

The prognosis varies, depending on the severity of symptoms; generally, it is good, as long as bleeding is promptly recognized and adequately controlled. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
Etiology GVMs are caused by mutations in the gene encoding glomulin ( GLMN ; 1p22.1). [orpha.net]
We assessed for whether such localized, tissue-specific events play a role in the etiology of the far more common sporadic VM. [scienceopen.com]
We identified a somatic 'second hit' causing loss of function of TIE2 in a resected VMCM and assessed whether such localized, tissue-specific events have a role in the etiology of sporadic venous malformations, which are far more common. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The vast majority of AVMs are sporadically occurring single lesions of unknown etiology. [oncohemakey.com]
