Too Hot to Handle: A Case of Esophageal Thermal Injury From Solid Food Ingestion.

JPGN Rep

February 2023

Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Bernard and Millie Duker Children's Hospital, Albany Medical Center, Albany, NY.

Esophageal thermal injury (ETI) is an uncommon occurrence in both children and adults. Therefore, little is known about the diagnosis and clinical course of patients suffering from these injuries. We present the case of an 11-year-old female with macrocephaly capillary malformation syndrome and developmental delay suffering from ETI after ingestion of a piece of hot butternut squash.

Article Synopsis
  • Diffuse capillary malformation with overgrowth (DCMO) is a rare condition involving capillary malformations and overgrowth of soft tissue, as demonstrated in a one-year-old boy with skin lesions present since birth.
  • The child exhibited widespread reticulated red patches on his skin, and noticeable size differences in the circumference of his legs, along with syndactyly (fused toes) on his right foot.
  • After ruling out other conditions, the child was diagnosed with DCMO and will be monitored by pediatric orthopedics for ongoing assessment of growth asymmetry.

Wilms tumor screening in diffuse capillary malformation with overgrowth and macrocephaly-capillary malformation: A retrospective study.

J Am Acad Dermatol

November 2017

Department of Dermatology, Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts; Vascular Anomalies Center, Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts. Electronic address:

Background: CLOVES (congenital lipomatous overgrowth, vascular malformations, epidermal nevi, and skeletal anomalies) syndrome is associated with regional bony and/or soft tissue overgrowth, capillary malformation, and an increased risk for Wilms tumor.

Objective: To evaluate the frequency of Wilms tumor in patients with 2 similar conditions: diffuse capillary malformation with overgrowth (DCMO) and macrocephaly-capillary malformation (M-CM).

Methods: Culling our Vascular Anomalies Center database, we retrospectively reviewed patients in whom DCMO and M-CM had been diagnosed and who were evaluated between 1998 and 2016 for possible development of Wilms tumor.

Megalencephaly-capillary malformation-polymicrogyria syndrome (MCAP), previously known as macrocephaly-cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita and macrocephaly-capillary malformation syndrome, is a rare multiple-malformation syndrome that is characterized by progressive megalencephaly, capillary malformations of the midline face and body, or distal limb anomalies such as syndactyly. Herein, we report a female infant case that satisfies the recently proposed criteria of MCAP and describe the distinctive neuroradiological and morphological features. We have also reviewed recently published reports and the diagnostic criteria proposed by various authors in order to facilitate the clinical diagnosis of these children in pediatric neurology clinics.
