Background: Intranodal hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors of the lymph nodes, often misdiagnosed as malignant lymphadenopathies due to their clinical and radiological features. This case report and systematic review aim to elucidate the epidemiology, clinical profile, and therapeutic interventions for intranodal hemangioma, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and management.

Methods: A systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.

Efficacy and safety of oral propranolol and topical timolol in the treatment of infantile hemangioma: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

Front Pharmacol

December 2024

Department of Pediatric Surgery, Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center, National Children's Medical Center for South Central Region, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, China.

Background: Propranolol, a nonselective β-blocker, is the first-line treatment for infantile hemangioma (IH). Topical timolol has recently been proposed as a novel IH treatment with fewer adverse effects. This study was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of oral propranolol and topical timolol for treating IH.

Infantile Haemangioma (IH) is vascular tumour in infants exhibiting rapid proliferation and angiogenesis followed by gradual involution.10% of cases are associated with disfiguring complications and requires medical interventions with β-blockers such as propranolol, surgery, or laser therapy. An in vitro IH three-dimensional (3D) model will improve our understanding of the disease mechanism(s).

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated eye and small blood vessel issues in patients who experienced symptoms after recovering from COVID-19, analyzing 44 patients mostly around 47 years old.
  • Using advanced imaging techniques, researchers found significant retinal abnormalities, including hyperreflective dots and areas of capillary non-perfusion, indicating compromised blood flow.
  • The results suggest that these retinal changes are linked to reduced capillary density, highlighting the importance of microvascular damage instead of just lasting problems with a protective layer around blood vessels.

Introduction: The 595-nm wavelength pulsed dye laser (PDL) is well-established in the treatment of vascular lesions. In June 2023, it received FDA clearance for the treatment of port-wine birthmarks (PWB) and infantile hemangiomas (IH) in the pediatric population.

Objective: Review the evidence regarding the efficacy, safety, and implications of using PDL for management of pediatric PWB and IH.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the suitability of the TriNetX database for researching the real-world management of Von Hippel-Lindau (vHL), a rare hereditary disease characterized by various tumors.
  • The researchers analyzed data from 1,232 patients diagnosed with vHL within the TriNetX database to identify the prevalence of several vHL-related conditions, finding that certain conditions like renal cell carcinoma and pheochromocytomas were more common than others.
  • Despite the robust patient data available, the findings suggest that vHL and its associated conditions may be underdiagnosed within the TriNetX database, casting doubt on its effectiveness for comprehensive vHL studies compared to existing literature.

Background: The prognostic impact of preoperative gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase to platelet ratio (GPR) levels in patients with solitary hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following radical resection has not been established.

Aim: To examine the clinical utility of GPR for prognosis prediction in solitary HBV-related HCC patients.

Methods: A total of 1167 solitary HBV-related HCC patients were retrospectively analyzed.

A two-month-old male infant presented with a soft palpable mass on his left upper eyelid. Initial management consisted of watchful observation followed by administration of β-blocker eyedrops on the eight-month check-up when a purple subconjunctival mass was observed during eyelid eversion, suggestive of an infantile hemangioma. At the three-year follow-up, since it was observed that the treatment did not reduce the size of the mass, an excisional biopsy was performed at the request of the mother.

Hemangioblastoma (HAB) is a benign, richly vascularized tumor that accounts for 2-6% of all spinal cord neoplasms and ranks third in the structure of intramedullary space-occupying lesions of the spinal cord. Hemangioblastoma may occur sporadically or, in approximately 30% of cases, as part of the clinical picture of a hereditary disease, von Hippel-Lindau disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic irradiation of hemangioblastomas of the spinal localization in patients with sporadic and von Hippel-Lindau-associated hemangioblastomas The results of stereotactic radiotherapy were evaluation of 210 spinal hemangioblastomas in 74 patients.

Intraosseous hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors predominantly occurring in the axial skeleton. This case report describes a 44-year-old female with a history of multiple renal stones and benign breast calcifications, who was incidentally found to have a 1.2 cm lucent lesion in the left iliac bone during imaging for nephrolithiasis.

Purpose: To investigate the use of intravitreal bevacizumab for the treatment of subretinal (SRF) and intraretinal fluid associated with circumscribed choroidal haemangiomas (CCH).

Methods: This was a retrospective review of all patients treated with at least 3 bevacizumab injections for CCH-associated SRF between May 2020 and August 2023 in Moorfields eye hospital. Outcome measures included change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), change in patient reported symptoms, change in SRF and change in central subfield thickness (CSFT).

Background: There is a paucity of studies on patient-reported outcomes and quality of life (QoL) in conservatively managed patients with a cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM).

Methods: This single-center observational study included consecutive adult CCM patients, diagnosed in 2000-2023, managed conservatively, and with at least 6 months of follow-up. Patients completed two validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs): EuroQol 5-dimensions 5-levels (EQ-5D-5L), and Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System 29 (PROMIS-29).

Composite hemangioendothelioma comprises permutations of different histological patterns few of which have been found to have specific genetic alteration and immunohistochemical expression. It comprises retiform or epithelioid hemangioendothelioma-like areas, with a variable proportion of hemangioma or low-grade angiosarcoma-like areas. It was found to express neuroendocrine markers and was seen to have a worse prognosis in recurrence or distant metastasis.

It has been claimed that microRNA 503-5p (miR-503-5p) is the key to the future diagnosis and treatment of cardiac hemangioma (CH), but the relationship between the two has not been fully validated. In this study, we analyzed the effect of miR-503-5p targeting type IA bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR1A) on CH to inform future diagnosis and treatment of CH. First, miR-503-5p and BMPR1A abnormal expression sequences (vectors) were transfected into human hemangioma-derived endothelial cells (HemECs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to observe alterations in cell biological behavior, adhesion, and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT).
