Description

The patient, a 59-year-old woman with no relevant past history, presented to the outpatient clinic with persistent pain in the right upper quadrant of her abdomen over the past month. The patient also mentioned fatigue and progressive abdominal distension during further questions. She did not report any other symptoms like changes in her bowel habits, abdominal pain, or weight loss. For HB normocytic anemia, laboratory testing was important: 9 (13-17 g/dL); VGM: 90 μm³ (80-100 μm³), moderate thrombocytopenia 98.000/mm³ (140-440 000 mm³), hypofibrinogenemia with fibrinogen level of 1.09 g/L (2-4 g/L), and delayed INR and the liver board was without range. She underwent an abdominal ultrasound, which first revealed a large, heterogeneous, hyperechoic liver mass (18 x 17 x 15 mm) with multiple hypoechoic tubular images of vascular appearance echogenicity occupying the right liver. After that, an MRI was performed, which confirmed the diagnosis of a massive hemangioma that appeared to be associated with kasabach- Merritt syndrome. The patient was treated with corticotherapy and salicylic acid, but the results were not satisfactory; after a few weeks, he had surgery, and the exploratory laparotomy revealed a massive hypervascular angioma that covered the entire right liver. The right liver with the mass was removed via right hepatectomy without capsular effraction or angioma rupture. There were no bleeding issues during the surgery or the recovery process. The excision's anatomical and pathological examination revealed a benign cavernous hemangioma. With no recurrence of angiomatous disease and the Kasabach-Merritt syndrome disappearing, the evolution was favorable.

Corticotherapy

Hemangiomas in the liver have been shown to grow to astonishing sizes and may be the cause of difficult and rare complications like Kasabach-Merritt syndrome. Surgeons, internists, and radiologists alike need to be aware of these possibilities in order to correctly diagnose and treat them when they arise. It is difficult, but essential for treatment, to distinguish between Congenital (HC) and Infantile (HI) hemangiomas. Although the immunohistochemical marker GLUT-1 helps distinguish them, biopsies are not routine. Se diseñó un estudio retrospectivo incluyendo los Hello there a los HC. In the HI group, the studied risk factors appeared more frequently. The type of response that the HI received was independent of the variables (sex, in vitro fertilization, depth, location, and treatment type).

It is difficult to tell the difference between infantile and congenital hemangiomas, but it is necessary for the right treatment. Although biopsies are uncommon in this setting, the immunohistochemical marker glucose transporter type 1 can be of assistance. This retrospective study sought to compare and describe the epidemiological, clinical, and treatment characteristics of congenital and infantile hemangiomas discovered at a tertiary care hospital over a three-year period. We concentrated on 107 hemangiomas: 34 inborn hemangiomas (quickly involuting, somewhat involuting, and noninvoluting), 70 puerile hemangiomas, and 3 hemangiomas forthcoming characterization. The most common tumors were superficial infantile hemangiomas of the head and neck.

Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome

Se incluyeron un absolute de 81 pacientes (53 mujeres y 28 varones) con 107 hemangiomas en complete, de los cuales 34 fueron HC y 70 Greetings. The median number of hemangiomas was 1,3-0,8. Due to a lack of follow-up, the diagnosis of HC or HI could not be confirmed in three lesions. For the HI, the most common localization was the cefalic territory (42,8 percent), and for the congenital group, it was the area occupied by lower/ periné members (32,3 percent). The female sex was predominant in both groups (64,8 percent in the HC group and 64,8 percent in the HI group, respectively). Both the characteristics of hemorrhages and the sociodemographic data of the two groups are compared in this study. In addition to the clinical investigation, an abdominal ultrasound was requested by 5 patients (6,2 percent) based on the number of lesions, but no hepatocellular lesions were found in any of them. In addition, an environmental study using mode B and Doppler was carried out on 55 patients (67,5 percent), with 10 (12,4 percent) of these patients receiving a Based on the initial suspicion, the diagnosis rate was 92,1 percent, with a median interval of 2,7 to 1,2 months before the diagnosis was confirmed. Some of the most common risk factors in pregnant women were gestational diabetes (6,2 percent) and maternal preeclampsia (4,9 percent). The median age of these women was 32,8 6,5 in the HC group and 34 5,6 in the HI group, respectively. Twenty-eight (23,5 percent) patients with HC received treatment with timolol after agreeing to it with their parents, but none of them provided any response. None of the HC was used in respiratory therapy. In the case of the HI, six of them were excluded from terapéutry based on size, development and/or location, and parents' wishes. In the case of HI, the complete response rate to treatment with timolol and propranolol was slightly higher than in the clinical tests; This could be explained by the fact that we have a response rate of between 80 and 100 percent, thereby integrating the effectiveness of aleatorization into real-world practice and selecting the most appropriate treatment for each type of hemorrhage. The type of response was unaffected by variables such as the patient's gender, location, depth, FIV gestational age, and treatment method. This contrasts with the literature, where the superior response is found in superficial hemangiomas. Some authors have recently proposed that combining timolol with lacer could increase its effectiveness to a level comparable to that of propranolol. Atenolol and nadolol might be an option for patients who can't take propranolol. This is based on studies that show that they are no worse than propranolol and have a better safety profile.

A young woman in her 28s presented with intractable pain in her left leg that began one year prior to her first visit and became worse three months ago. She had no set of experiences of ailments and spinal medical procedures. On the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), her left leg pain was rated 8/10 and her low back pain was rated 2/10. Her left leg torment was irritated by expanded stomach pressure.
