Kaposiform haemangioendothelioma of the spine associated with fixed hyperlordotic deformity and Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome: a case report and literature review.

Kaposiform haemangioendothelioma (KHE) is a rare childhood disease classified by the International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA) as a locally aggressive vascular tumor. It has been reported to affect any site, with a predilection for the extremities and trunk. Although it typically manifests as an enlarging cutaneous or soft tissue lesion, less than 10% of cases have no skin involvement, with the retroperitoneum being the most frequently involved extracutaneous site. Approximately twenty cases of KHE with bony involvement have been reported in the literature to date, with only five of those cases involving the spine specifically.We present a, rare case of KHE who presented with progressive fixed hyperlordotic deformity, multiple non-specific spinal lesions, and abnormal blood tests, posing a clinical and radiological diagnostic challenge. Additionally, we conducted a thorough review of the literature to compare and contrast the various multimodality imaging manifestations of KHE involving the spine.

Case report: Treatment response of NF-1-associated bladder ganglioneuroma to trametinib.

We present the clinical course of a 4-year-old girl with neurofibromatosis type 1-associated, unresectable, symptomatic urinary bladder ganglioneuroma. She was initially trialed on sirolimus without response and subsequently responded to MEK inhibitor trametinib, with improvement clinically and radiographically over 10 months. This report broadens the repertoire of therapeutic strategies for MEK inhibition in diseases related to the MAPK pathway.

Case Report: Primary Thoracic Low-Grade Fibromyxoid Sarcoma in a Young Girl Presenting With Mediastinal Mass Syndrome.

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcomas (LGFMSs) are typically adult-onset tumors that arise from the extremities. Here, we report an exceptional case of primary thoracic LGFMS in an 8-year-old girl that resulted in mediastinal syndrome. In reporting this case, we discuss the clinical challenges, role of molecular profiling and review reported cases of pediatric thoracic LGFMSs.
