Vascular malformations and hemangiomas are common in children, but gastric hemangioma is extremely rare with less than 15 reported cases in the pediatric age group. Gastric hemangioma accounts for only 0.05% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms, and intra-abdominal hemangiomas are rarely found outside of the liver. We present a unique case of gastric hemangioma, and multiple hemangiomas were detected in a single scan by 99mTc-labeled RBC blood pool imaging. This case also depicts the incremental role of SPECT/CT over planar acquisition for detecting multiple hemangiomas, especially for those lesions located adjacent to physiological blood pool activity.

Introduction: Laennec's capsule serves as a critical anatomical landmark in anatomical liver resection. Despite its potential, a lack of large-scale prospective studies limits the widespread use of the Laennec approach for minimally invasive hepatectomy. This multicenter cohort study aimed to compare the outcomes of the traditional and Laennec approaches in minimally invasive anatomical hepatectomy across multiple centers in China.

A 13-month-old boy presented to the pediatric ophthalmology clinic at BC Children's Hospital for strabismus assessment. On examination he had a right facial hemangioma, left ptosis, and left exotropia and hypotropia. Magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography of his head demonstrated posterior cerebral artery tortuosity producing mild mass effect on the left oculomotor nerve.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a low-grade malignant tumor of vascular origin. The rarity of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) makes the diagnosis and treatment of this entity challenging. We report a case of a 69-year-old female patient who suffered from HEHE and complained of abdominal distension pain with dizziness and appetite loss for more than half a month.

Background: Lung transplantation is a viable lifesaving option for patients with diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We present a case of diffuse pulmonary AVMs associated with juvenile polyposis and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (JP-HHT) that was successfully managed by lung transplantation.
Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman developed severe hypoxemia due to pulmonary AVMs diagnosed at 4 years of age.
