1.The structural features of skin with the flat angiomatosis prior to and after CO2 laser treatment
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):12-14
The port-wine stain has always been a difficult lesion to treat cosmetically. Skin biopsoes prior to treatment port-wine stains and at 11- 42 months after CO2 laser treatment of port-wine stain were taken in 6 patients of both sexes. Histology after CO2 laser surgery in successfully treated lesions is remarkable for a few small-caliber dilated vessels with relativelly free of erythrocytes. The histology after CO2 laser surgery also revealed a large amount of collagen deposited and a few appendageal structures in the dermis.

Cobb syndrome is a rare neurocutaneous angiomatosis characterized by a vascular skin nevus associated with a spinal cord angioma of the same metamere. A 14-year-old girl had an asymptomatic large cutaneous hemangioma distributed from the TI dermatome downward to the L3 dermatome since birth and complained of a gait disturbance and urination difficulty for 1 year. A biopsy specimen in the skin lesion revealed the findings of capillary hemangioma. From C7 downward to L4 posterior epidural hemangioma composed of arteriovenous and cavernous components was diagnosed by radiological examination and surgical exploration. Because of very extensive cord hemangioma, only partial removal of the tumor at T11, T12 and L1 level was performed and postoperatively she was transferred to a special facility for rehabilitative therapy.

PURPOSE: We reported the CT and MR findings of 2 cases with Sturge-Weber syndrome which were not accompanied by facial nevi. MATERIALS AND METHODS: They were examined with both CT and MR in one case and with MR only in the other case. RESULTS: CT was better than MR in the demonstration of the characteristic cortical calcification. MR was superior to CT in the depiction of the abnormalities of the surrounding parenchyma and the intense enhancement of pial angiomatosis with Gd-DTPA enhancement. CONCLUSION: Gd-DTPA enhanced MR imaging could be useful in the demonstration of the presence and extent of pial angiomatosis in patients with suspected Sturge-Weber syndrome.

Diffuse dermal angiomatosis is an acquired, benign vascular proliferation with poorly circumscribed, violaceous, and livedoid plaques with frequent ulceration. Histologically, there is diffuse and interstitial proliferation of CD31-positive endothelial cells and myofibroblasts within the dermis. Endothelial atypia, mitoses, and vasculitis are lacking. Here we describe a 52-year-old male who presented with erythematous and purpuric patches on the trunk and lower extremities for 2 years. Histologic examination demonstrated a dense proliferation of endothelial cells in the papillary and reticular dermis. Small vascular spaces and extravasated erythrocytes were noted. Immunohistochemical staining using anti-CD31 antibody was positive.

Cerebral venous angomas are a rare form of intracranial vascular malformation and first reported by Wolf in 1967. The characteristic angiographic appearance of venous malformation is a local network of small veins that converged centrally into a single large drainage vein. The CT findings are linear or curvilinear enhancement after administration of contrast media. The authors present a case of venous angiomatosis of the both hemisphere combined with dural arteriovenous malformations demonstrated by the carotid angiography and bran CT, with clinical presentation of status epilepcus and following left hemiplegia due to cerebral infarction.

6.Posterior Fossa Hemangioblastoma.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1991;20(12):997-1005
Hemangioblastomas are histologically benign tumors, which generally occur at the posteriro fossa and rarely in supratentorial region. The authors analyzed 18 cases of posterior fossa hemangioblastoma which have been operated at the Department of Neurosurgery, Seoul National University Hospital from 1982 to 1989. The clinico-pathological and radiological features were as follows : 1) Among 18 cases, 13 cases were cystic type with or without mural nodule and 5 cases were solid type. 2) 2 cases were compatible with Von Hippel Lidau's complex, one of which was associated with retinal angiomatosis and the other with mulitple cysts in the pancreas and kidney. In 3 cases, hemoglobin level was above 18g/dl, implying polycythemia, but returned to normal level postoperatively. 3) Mural nodules were not visible in the enhanced CT scan in the 2 cases, in one of which mural nodule was visible in the angiography and so, angiography was more helpful than the CT scan in the detection and the localization of the mural nodule. 4) Among 18 cases, 2 cases(11%) recurred at 34 months and 48 months postperatively.

Cardiac herniation is a rare catastrophic complication of intrapericardial pneumonectomy. Untreated it is invariably fatal. Left pneumonectomy for removal of huge angiomatosis tumor in left lung was performed in a 44 year-old male patient. At the end of operation, the patient had cardiovascular collapse due to cardiac herniation. Repaired pericardial suture was teared and the heart was herniated in the left thorax. The hernated heart was edematous caused by compression and incarceration of the cardiac muscle by the edge of the pericardial rent. The heart was introduced into the pericardial sac and the defect was closed with large Goretex patch; however the patient ' s brain had sever hypoxic damage. This paper reports a case of cardiac herniation following left intrapericardial pneumonectomy.

Tumoral form of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) of male breast is a rare disease entity. We report on a case of PASH that presented as a palpable subareolar breast mass in a 46-year-old male who has been on hemodialysis due to chronic renal failure. To the best of our knowledge, no case of PASH in a male with chronic renal failure has yet been reported. We describe its mammographic and sonographic findings with correlative histopathologic features, confirmed by surgical excision.

Cobb's syndrome, or cutaneomeningospinal angiomatosis, is a combination of the vascular skin nevus and angioma in the spinal cord within a corresponding segment or two to the dermatoms involved. A 15 year old girl showed the portwine nevus at T2-T11 dermatomes and multilevel spinal angioma at C7-L3 levels. She had suffered from a slowly progressive weakness of both lower extremities. Motor weakness of lower extremities improved after the combined rehabilitation management and radiation therapy for 4 months. We report the typical manifestations of Cobb's syndrome in a 15 year old girl with the brief review of literatures.
