Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that are relatively unusual in the oral cavity. The management of labial hemangiomas may be challenging for functional and esthetic reasons. In the present case, a 12-year-old boy with a large congenital hemangioma in the area of the upper lip was referred due to esthetic concerns and a history of treatment failure.

Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital disorder with diverse manifestations, including diffuse choroidal hemangiomas causing visual impairment. This case report describes a 14-year-old girl with retinal detachment due to diffuse choroidal hemangioma, treated effectively using external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). The treatment achieved a significant 55% reduction in choroidal thickness after the first phase and near-complete remission after supplementary therapy.

Purpose: To demonstrate the utility of ultrasound and color Doppler examination in differentiating red skin lesions.
Methods: We used high-frequency probes to identify common features of infantile hemangioma that can help distinguish it from other red skin lesions.
Results: In the pediatric population red skin lesions are frequently encountered in clinical practice.
Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are the most common vascular tumors in children. While many are uncomplicated, a significant minority can cause cutaneous complications or be associated with multiorgan congenital anomalies. Infants with so-called "segmental" IH (patterned and not round) are at-risk for two related syndromes: PHACE (posterior fossa anomalies, hemangioma of the head or neck, cerebrovascular arterial anomalies, cardiac and eye anomalies) and LUMBAR (IH of the lower body; urogenital anomalies and IH ulceration; spinal cord malformations; bony, anorectal, arterial, and renal anomalies).

Background/objectives: Congenital skin anomalies have been observed in LUMBAR syndrome, but their clinicopathologic significance remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the congenital, nonvascular skin anomalies in LUMBAR syndrome (lower body infantile hemangiomas, urogenital anomalies and hemangioma ulceration, spinal cord malformations, bony deformities, anorectal/arterial anomalies, and renal anomalies). We hypothesized that an association exists between complex skin hamartomas and LUMBAR syndrome, similar to recent findings in PHACE syndrome (posterior fossa anomalies, hemangioma, cerebrovascular arterial anomalies, cardiovascular anomalies, and eye anomalies).
