Rapidly growing lesions always require careful examination. Due to pregnancy, certain pre-existing lesions may become visible or symptomatic due to accelerated growth and present a challenging differential diagnosis. It is essential to investigate these lesions carefully to establish an accurate diagnosis and ensure appropriate treatment. Due to hormonal and physiological changes during pregnancy, cutaneous lesions may arise and develop more rapidly than usual. In this case report we discuss a lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) on the left breast that developed rapidly during pregnancy. The management of fast-growing lesions with possible differential diagnoses, especially during pregnancy, is explored. Early recognition and appropriate management of these lesions are crucial because some of them can be life-threatening.

Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH), typically a benign vasoproliferative lesion of the skin or mucosal surfaces, is exceptionally rare in the trachea. Now, we present the second reported case of LCH found in the right intermediate bronchus, characterized by calcification within the lesion and cystic changes. These distinctive features should alert clinicians to consider LCH in the differential diagnosis of other benign vascular tumors and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, particularly when calcified and cystic lesions are observed.

Background And Study Aims: The aim of this study was to clarify the endoscopic characteristics of colorectal hamartomatous polyps, including solitary juvenile polyp (JP) and solitary Peutz-Jeghers polyp (PJP).
Patients And Methods: We reviewed the clinicopathological and endoscopic findings of 151 colorectal polyps with a diagnosis of solitary JP or solitary PJP. The clinicopathological and endoscopic findings of 119 JPs and 32 PJPs were retrospectively compared.

Introduction: Pyogenic granulomas are benign, painless vascular tumors on the skin and mucosal surfaces. They are commonly found in the head and neck region, although their occurrence in the larynx is rare. The term "lobular capillary hemangioma" is now used to describe the histological appearance of these tumors more accurately.

Angiomyolipoma (AML), composed of smooth muscle cells, blood vessels, and adipose tissues, belongs to a family of tumors originating from perivascular epithelioid cells. Angiomyolipoma most commonly arises in the kidney but is extremely rare in the nasal cavity. Angiomyolipoma is classified into hepatorenal and mucocutaneous AML.
