A Case of Lymphangiomas(So-called Combined Venous Lymphatic Malformation) Resulting in Orbital Abscess

Orbital lymphangiomas are benign vascular hamartomas that may be found in the conjunctiva, the eyelids, the orbit, or elsewhere in the head and neck region. Deep lymphangiomatous lesions are classically characterized by acute onset of a fulminant proptosis resulting from spontaneous hemorrhage within the orbit. Complete surgical excision is often difficult because of the infiltrative nature of the tumor.We report one case of lymphangiomas considered to be associated with cavernous hemangioma which could not be removed completely by several surgical excisions and was exenterated because of orbital abscess of unknown origin and septic condition.

Sclerosis of hepatic cavernous hemangioma: CT findings and pathologic correlation

We report a case of hepatic cavernous hemangioma with computed tomographic findings of well demarcated nodular lesser attenuation foci within the main low attenuation mass on precontrast scans and non-enhancement of the foci even on the delayed contrast scans. These have been described as one of the atypical findings of cavernous hemangioma earlier in the literature. Surgery proved that sclerosis accounted for the hypodense nodular densities within the hepatic cavernous hemangioma.
