RESUMO

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) is a rare, locally aggressive vascular tumor with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate ultrasonographic findings associated with KHE.The clinical and ultrasonographic findings of a cohort of 64 cases with pathologically proven KHE were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed between November 2014 and February 2021. Two subtypes were divided according to the presence or absence of the Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon (KMP). The KMP risk factors in patients with KHE were analyzed statistically.Among the 64 cases of KHE, 43 (67.2%) were accompanied by KMP. There was a positive correlation between the appearance of KMP and tumor size. KHEs had an increased risk of developing KMP if the lesions measured were >6 cm and if they belonged to the deep or mixed subtype. On ultrasonography, all KHE lesions were heterogeneous, and 81.3% were hypoechoic; 93.8% of KHEs exhibited ill-defined margins, 68.7% had strands branching into the adjacent tissue, and 84.4% presented marked hypervascularity. Elastography showed that central hypoechogenic lesion areas were hard, and surrounding hyperechogenic lesion areas were soft.KHEs can occur in different parts of childrens' bodies. On ultrasonography, the main findings are heterogeneous low erosions, indistinct margins, branching strangulation into adjacent tissues, and obvious hypervascularity. Patients with lesions larger than 6 cm or belonging to deep or mixed subtypes (musculoskeletal infiltrates) are at risk for developing KMP, and clinicians should be vigilant.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the surgical approaches and efficacies of flexion deformity caused by antebrachium muscle hemangioma. METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed in 41 cases of flexion deformity caused by antebrachium muscle cavernous hemangioma. There were 16 males and 25 females with an age range of 14 - 56 years old. Twenty-nine cases were surgically treated once and 12 re-operated. Hemangioma resection and Z-shaped tendon lengthening was adopted to cure antebrachium muscle hemangioma. During the follow-ups, the operative success rate and flexible extents of forearm, wrist and finger were evaluated. RESULTS: Complete resection was performed in 37 cases and partial resection in 4. All patients underwent Z-shaped tendon lengthening. The operative success rate was 90% during a follow-up period of 6 - 12 months. After treatment, the pains disappeared and bend function recovered. Four cases had little improvement in movement range. CONCLUSION: The procedure of hemangioma resection and Z-shaped tendon lengthening should be performed as early as possible for hemangioma caused by antebrachium muscle cavernous hemangioma. And physical training is helpful for function reconstruction.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the value of ultrasonography as a diagnostic aid in differentiating intramuscular capillary-type hemangioma (ICTH) from fibro-adipose vascular anomaly (FAVA). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted of the clinical and ultrasound imaging data of 20 patients with ICTH and 45 patients with FAVA who were admitted to and pathologically confirmed in hospital between January 2013 and April 2023. The clinical and ultrasonographic appearances of the lesions in the two groups were compared and analyzed. A stepwise regression analysis was performed, and a joint diagnostic equation was constructed using the final variables selected. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and indicators, including sensitivity and specificity, were used to evaluate the efficacy of the joint diagnostic model. Results: The two groups of patients suffering from ICTH and FAVA presented a statistically significant difference (P< 0.05) in terms of 'age', 'lesion size', 'fascial tail sign', 'presence of a fatty-tissue-like hyperecho around the lesion', 'blood flow' and 'presence of straight blood capillaries within the lesion'. Finally, the variables 'fascial tail sign' and 'presence of straight blood capillaries within the lesion' were selected to construct the model. The constructed joint diagnostic model had a sensitivity value of 70.0% (95% CI: 59.00-81.00), a specificity value of 98.0% (95% CI: 94.70-100.00) and a ROC curve value of 0.908, indicating the high efficacy of the combined diagnosis method. Conclusions: Ultrasonography can be utilized to differentiate ICTH from FAVA, and the combined diagnosis method can further improve the technique's diagnostic efficacy.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To review and summarize the clinical characteristics and therapeutic approaches of Kasabach-Merritt syndrome (KMS). METHODS: The combined and sequential therapy was used to for 51 KMS infants between 2005 and 2009. And all cases were retrospectively analyzed. There were 27 males and 24 females with a median age of 1.8 months (range: 2 days to 2.5 years). Among them, lesions were located in maxillofacial (n = 20), truck (n = 4), upper extremities (n = 11) and lower extremities (n = 16). RESULTS: Among them, 47 of 51 patients were cured, 3 cases were effectively treated and only 1 patient died of multiple organ failure post-operation. Of the 51 cases, emergency surgery was given in 3 cases while other 48 cases were initially treated with methylprednisolone. The responses were varied: excellent and rapid improvement (n = 12); moderate response (n = 15) and total failure (n = 21). Immunoglobulin was used a second-line therapy for those (n = 21) unresponsive to steroid, with sensitive response (n = 5), effective response (n = 7) and invalid response (n = 9) respectively. And adjunct carbonyldiamide therapy was combined. Conservative treatment was tried in 14 patients. Then 11 curative cases and 3 effective cases were observed. The thrombocyte count in 4 cases returned to normal within 4 - 7 days, 5 cases within 8 - 14 days, and 2 cases within 15 - 28 days. In the remaining 3 cases, it normalized more than 28 days. The hemangiomas in 6 cases disappeared completely in 6 - 12 months and 8 cases disappeared in 13 - 24 months. 19 patients were treated with the ligation of external carotid artery, the insertion of a tube inside the lesion and the injections of carbonyldiamide and methylprednisolone. The platelet counts of 13 cases increased to normal in 4 - 7 days of the treatment, and 6 cases in 8 - 14 days. The tumors of 12 cases disappeared within 6 - 12 months, and 7 cases within 13 - 24 months. Combined surgical resection including emergency operation (n = 3) and selective operation (n = 15) was performed in 18 patients. And all cases except for one were cured. The platelet counts of that the hemangiomas of 10 cases were excised surgically completely increased rapidly and reached the normal range in post-operative 1 - 3 days. The counts of 8 cases after subtotal resection increased to normal within 8-14 days. CONCLUSION: A stepwise multimodal approach is recommended for the treatment of KMS. With a higher curative rate, it has minimal side effects.

RESUMO

AIMS: Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common vascular neoplasm in infant and young children. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to be associated with IH. This study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanism of lncRNA-MALAT1 in IH. MAIN METHODS: qRT-PCR was used to quantify the expressions of MALAT1, miR-424, and MEKK3 in IH tissues. The cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and tube formation ability were assessed by MTT assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometric analysis, transwell assay and tube formation assay, respectively. The interaction among MALAT1, miR-424 and MEKK3 was evaluated by luciferase reporter assay. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blotting were utilized to evaluate the expression levels of MEKK3, Ki-67 and NF-κB pathway-related proteins both in vitro and in vivo. KEY FINDINGS: In IH tissues, MALAT1 and MEKK3 were overexpressed while miR-424 was down-regulated. Silencing MALAT1 or overexpression of miR-424 significantly inhibited the IH cell proliferation, migration and tube formation, but promoted the cell apoptosis. Knockdown of MALAT1 suppressed the expression of MEKK3 and inactivated the IKK/NF-κB pathway by sponging miR-424. Overexpression of MEKK3 in HemEcs reversed the impact of knockdown of MALAT1 and overexpression of miR-424 on the cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and tube formation rate. The tumor xenografts experiments demonstrated that silencing MALAT1 significantly inhibited the tumor growth in vivo and Ki-67 in the tumor tissues was also significantly suppressed. SIGNIFICANCE: MALAT1 promoted the IH progression through inhibiting miR-424 to activate MEKK3-mediated IKK/NF-κB pathway, suggesting that MALAT1, miR-424 and MEKK3 could be used as potential targets to improve IH treatment efficiency.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment of pediatric tufted angiomas(TA)complicated by Kasabach-Merritt Phenomenon (KMP). METHOD: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and follow-up data of 13 patients diagnosed with TA complicated by KMP. Five male and 8 female patients with an average age of 5.7 months (range, 29 days to 1 year) were treated with surgery between January 2009 and June 2012. According to the size and location of lesions and the degree of thrombocytopenia, complete or subtotal resection was performed. The median follow-up period was 3.4 years (range, 1.7 years to 5.2 years). Therapeutic outcomes were evaluated by platelet count and lesion size. RESULTS: Curative treatment of KMP is defined as restoration of normal hemostasis and elimination of tumor cells. Twelve patients achieved curative treatment and one died of multiple organ failure after operation. Ten patients received complete resection and three patients received incomplete resection. Thrombocyte count, hemoglobin and blood coagulation were respectively restored to normal levels within 1-3 days and 1-2 weeks post complete resection operation. One of the three patients who received subtotal resection operation died. In the other two patients, the platelet count fluctuated over time but remained above 60 × 109 /L, a significantly higher level than the preoperational level. Residual lesions slowly disappeared after continuous medication 3-6 months post operation. CONCLUSION: Early surgical treatment of patients with TA complicated with KMP resulted in significantly higher curative rate and reduced side-effects of drugs.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the characters of Kasabach-Merritt syndrome (KMS) and to evaluate the therapeutic effect of drug therapy combined with surgery. METHODS: From 2004 to 2010, 59 cases with KMS, who underwent drug therapy and surgery, were retrospectively studied. The average age of the patients, including 33 male and 26 female (male/female, 1.269/1), was 2.9 months (range, 7 days-2.5 years). 28 cases with maxillofacial lesions were treated with the ligation of external carotid artery and injection of carbonyldiamide and methylprednisolone. 31 cases with lesions at trunks and extremities were treated by excision of lesions. All the patients were followed up for 2.8 years (range, 6.5 months -7.3 years). Therapeutic outcomes were assessed by evaluating platelet counts,size of lesion, function of trunk and limb. RESULTS: 58 cases were cured except for one dead case. Emergency operation was given in 4 cases, and selective operation was performed in other cases (55 cases). The thrombocyte count, hemoglobin and blood coagulation function returned to normal within 1-2 weeks. The mental condition, appetite, body weight,sleeping were greatly improved one week after treatment. The size of the lesions decreased gradually after the management of ligation of external carotid artery including 18 cases within 6-12 months and 10 cases within 13-24 months. Long term follow-up studies indicated that there was no recurrent case, and the weight, height, immunity of the patients with good function activities were in keeping with the normal counterparts. CONCLUSIONS: The drug combined with surgery therapy is a very reliable management with high curative rate, short disease period and minimum side-effect.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the treatment of the scrotal vein malformation in teenagers and clinical efficacy. METHODS: 32 cases with the local and diffuse scrotal vein malformation were retrospectively analyzed. 31 cases underwent local injection with 40% urea before resection. The urea was injected locally into tumor through multi-points within 30 seconds, 2-6 ml every time, one time a day. The injection was performed for 5-12 days. The treatment was refused in one case. The therapeutic effect and cosmetic result were recorded. RESULTS: The tumors were removed radically in 28 cases including one operation in 25 cases and secondary operation in 3 cases. The patients were followed up for 1-3 years with no recurrence. Cosmetic result with bilaterally symmetric scrotum was satisfactory. The tumors in 3 severe cases were partially resected with improvement. CONCLUSIONS: Combined treatment with urea injection and surgical procedure can effectively treat the scrotal vein malformation with satisfactory result.
