Rapidly involuting congenital hemangiomas are rare variants of congenital hemangiomas. They are different from the more common infantile hemangiomas in that their presentation, clinical course, and histopathologic features are dissimilar. We report a case of a giant rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma of the face, with a 15-year follow-up and a review of this rare entity.

Clinical characteristics and managements of congenital hepatic hemangioma: a cohort study of 211 cases.
Hepatol Int
November 2024
Division of Oncology, Department of Pediatric Surgery, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.
Article Synopsis
- This study focused on congenital hepatic hemangiomas (CHHs) in children, investigating their clinical characteristics and how management strategies have changed over the past two decades.
- A total of 211 patients were analyzed, identifying four subtypes of CHHs, with most patients experiencing different rates of involution (size reduction) of the hemangiomas based on their subtype.
- The research revealed a significant increase in the use of expectant management (monitoring without invasive treatment), rising from 35.4% to 77.7% from 2003-2012 to 2013-2022, while maintaining a high survival rate of 98.6% among patients.
Diagnosing Common Benign Skin Tumors.
Am Fam Physician

Prisma Health and the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, Greenville.
Article Synopsis
- Distinguishing between benign and potentially malignant skin tumors is crucial in family medicine, and many benign tumors can be diagnosed based on their history, appearance, and growth patterns.
- Procedures like biopsy or excision may be necessary if there's uncertainty about a diagnosis or if the lesion changes rapidly.
- Treatment options vary based on the type of lesion and patient preference, with methods like excision, laser therapy, and cryotherapy commonly used; special considerations are needed for patients with darker skin to minimize risks like hypopigmentation.
The molecular chronology of mammary epithelial cell fate switching.
bioRxiv
November 2024
Department of Surgery, Medical College of Wisconsin Cancer Center, Milwaukee, WI, USA.
The adult mammary gland is maintained by lineage-restricted progenitor cells through pregnancy, lactation, involution, and menopause. Injury resolution, transplantation-associated mammary gland reconstitution, and tumorigenesis are unique exceptions, wherein mammary basal cells gain the ability to reprogram to a luminal state. Here, we leverage newly developed cell-identity reporter mouse strains, and time-resolved single-cell epigenetic and transcriptomic analyses to decipher the molecular programs underlying basal-to-luminal fate switching .
