Congenital hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors, categorized by their postnatal behavior as rapidly involuting, non-involuting, or partially involuting. They are typically solitary, with a predilection for the head or limbs near a joint. We present two infants with small, multifocal congenital nonprogressive hemangiomas of the skin, one associated with hepatic and intracranial lesions, and another with an in utero intracranial hemorrhage and hydrocephalus. These cases further extend the differential diagnosis of congenital multifocal vascular lesions or "hemangiomatosis."

Epstein-Barr virus-associated smooth muscle tumors (EBV-SMTs) are a rare type of tumor occurring exclusively in immunocompromised patients in the setting of HIV/AIDS, post-organ transplant, and congenital immunodeficiency. These tumors require demonstration of EBV DNA on histopathologic studies in order to establish a diagnosis. The overall prognosis is good.

This study describes the congenital goiter in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos) fetus aborted in November 2021 with the clinical and pathological findings in the dam that was found dead on the farm three weeks after a miscarriage. The dam was a black coat alpaca bred in the Netherlands, imported in Italy in January 2021, and housed in a farm of central Italy for breeding purposes. Signalment and clinical data on dam and fetus were collected from the farmer and referring veterinarian.

Article Synopsis
- Adipose dystrophy (lipodystrophy) involves the loss of fat tissue, potentially causing fat to accumulate in other body areas and leading to metabolic issues like insulin resistance and liver disease.
- The condition is linked to several gene mutations and can be either congenital or acquired, presenting in different forms.
- This report details a rare case of localized lipodystrophy with normal development and partial fat atrophy, aimed at improving clinicians' knowledge of this uncommon disease.

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.
