Doppler ultrasonography was performed for diagnosis, vein graft selection, and postoperative follow-up. The authors believe that such combined approach may be the routine for pediatric vascular reconstructions. Finally, this reconstruction has been rarely reported in tuberous sclerosis patients...

Solitary fibrous tumor is a rare neoplasm. Few cases have been described in the head and neck area, and less than 11 were located in the larynx. We described two new cases of solitary fibrous tumor of the larynx. A man, 64-year-old, and a woman, 77-year-old, both with submucosal and nodular supraglottic lesions, were submitted to surgical treatment and both showed CD-34 and bcl-2 immunoreactivity and S-100 and smooth-muscle actin negativity. After 24 and 22 months of postoperative follow-up, respectively, they did not show signs of active disease...
O tumor fibroso solitário é uma neoplasia rara. Foram descritos poucos casos em cabeça e pescoço, sendo não mais de 11 na laringe. Descrevemos dois novos casos de tumor fibroso solitário da laringe, um em um homem de 64 anos e outro em uma mulher de 77 anos, ambos com lesões supraglóticas submucosas e nodulares. Os casos foram submetidos a tratamento cirúrgico e ambos apresentaram imunorreatividade a CD-34 e bcl-2, e negatividade para S-100 e actina de músculo liso. Após 24 e 22 meses de seguimento pós-operatório, respectivamente, não apresentam sinais de doença em atividade...
