Intraosseous hemangiomas in the jaw area are rare pathological changes that occur in the mandible, particularly in the premolar and molar region. Clinically, a slowly increasing painless swelling is typical. Recurrent spontaneous bleeding and paresthesia may also occur. Radiologically, osteolytic zones with a soap bubble-like appearance are usually seen. The current classification of the "International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA)" distinguishes hemangiomas from vascular malformations. Hemangiomas are true, benign endothelial tumors, and vascular malformations are hamartoma-like changes that are already present at birth. In the present case, a 36-year-old patient presented to his dentist with increasing numbness of the left lower lip.

The central nervous system (CNS) parenchyma has conventionally been believed to lack lymphatic vasculature, likely due to a non-permissive microenvironment that hinders the formation and growth of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). Recent findings of ectopic expression of LEC markers including Prospero Homeobox 1 (PROX1), a master regulator of lymphatic differentiation, and the vascular permeability marker Plasmalemma Vesicle Associated Protein (PLVAP), in certain glioblastoma and brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), has prompted investigation into their roles in cerebrovascular malformations, tumor environments, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) abnormalities. To explore the relationship between ectopic LEC properties and BBB disruption, we utilized endothelial cell-specific overexpression mutants.

A 54-year-old man presented with gait disturbances, urinary incontinence, and headache for 6 months. Head computed tomography indicated several high-density mass lesions in the quadrigeminal cistern, causing occlusive hydrocephalus. Digital subtraction angiography confirmed tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulae (AVF).

This study discusses disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) associated with solid cancers and various vascular abnormalities, both of which generally exhibit chronic DIC patterns. Solid cancers are among the most significant underlying diseases that induce DIC. However, the severity, bleeding tendency, and progression of DIC vary considerably depending on the type and stage of the cancer, making generalization difficult.

Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are tangles of abnormal vessels with early arteriovenous (AV) shunting that can lead to intracerebral hemorrhage, seizures, neurologic deficit, or headache. To date, only a few cases of carcinomas metastasizing to pre-existing cerebral AVMs have been reported in the literature. However, renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) brain metastases that exhibit early AV shunting, where AVM pathology is not present, are extremely rare.

Aneurysms of the superior vena cava are rare vascular malformations of systemic veins. This report presents the case of a 27-year-old woman with an incidental finding of mediastinal shadow widening on the chest roentgenogram that was confirmed by computed tomographic angiography to be a superior vena cava saccular aneurysm >4 cm in diameter. Surgical resection was recommended on the basis of aneurysmal size and shape and was performed through median sternotomy by using cardiopulmonary bypass.
