benign vascular neoplasms

A

well-formed vascular channels lined by EC

25

very common

  • 7% of all benign pediactric tumors
  • rare malignancy
  • common in skin and liver
26

  • regresses age 7
30
Q

hemosiderin

A

causes brown coloration

-due to RBC breakdown

31
Q

cavernous hemangioma

A

larger, less circumscribed - and involves deeper structures

  • local destruction
  • no tendency to regress
  • intravascular thrombosis with associated dystrophic calcification

in brain - dangerous

32

VHL

A

get hemangioblastoma***

-maybe get cavernous hemangioma as well

33

-rapid growing red module
-skin, gingiva, oral mucosa
-1/3 develop after trauma
-ulcerated surface
35
Q
