ABSTRACT
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (AHE) is a benign reactive vascular lesion characterized by a proliferation of small to medium sized vascular structures lined by epithelioid endothelial cells. We report a 75-year-old woman with a 1-month history of a painful ulcer on the tongue. Histopathological findings confirmed a diagnosis of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia. The tongue is an unusual site for this lesion. The treatment of choice for AHE is surgical excision.

The terms verrucous hemangioma and angiokeratoma circumscriptum have been used interchangeably in the literature to define clinically similar lesions. From a histologic perspective, however, angiokeratoma circumscriptum is limited to the papillary dermis whereas verrucous hemangioma extends as far as the hypodermis. We describe the case of a 38-year-old woman who consulted for a lesion on the right thigh that was initially diagnosed as angiokeratoma; magnetic resonance imaging, however, led to a final diagnosis of verrucous hemangioma.

Un varón de 62 años, fumador de 20 cigarrillos al día, encontrándose previamente bien, presentó un cuadro de edema cervicofacial, ingurgitación yugular y signos de circulación colateral en el tórax. Ante la sospecha de un síndrome de la vena cava superior se realizó una radiografía de tórax que demostró la presencia de una masa mediastínica. Estudios posteriores demonstraron que dicha masa correspondía a un carcinoma microcítico de pulmón (AU)
