Since its first description by Calonje in 1994, only a few primary multiple cases have been described in the literature. We present a case of unusual primary multiple RH on forearm and neck occurring in a 56 years old female patient. The patient presented with a slow-growing cutaneous plaque-like lesion on her left forearm, followed by another lesion at the site of neck for several years. In the skin biopsy examination, a diagnosis of angiosarcoma with cutaneous metastasis was made based on multiple lesions at different anatomic sites and vasoformative growth pattern with anastomosing channels under the microscopy. However, postoperative histological diagnosis of the lesion was primary multiple RH by thoroughly microscopical inspection and the presence of thin-walled interconnecting vascular channels arranged in a retiform pattern and absence of lymph node metastasis. Despite wide surgical excision with tumor-free margin, the tumor recurred at the neck 3 months after surgery.

Olivier Galatoire and Mathieu Zmuda of the A. de Rothschild Ophthalmological Foundation and Dr. Christine Levy-Gabriel of the Curie Institute. The subject is now of unquestionable importance and evidently of great interest to Ophthalmologists, whether they are orbital- palpebral specialists or not. Indeed, errors or delays in the diagnosis of tumor pathologies are relatively common and the consequences can be serious in the case of malignant tumors, especially carcinomas. Swift diagnosis and anatomopathological confirmation will lead to a treatment, discussed in multidisciplinary team meetings, ranging from surgery to radiotherapy.

  • Benign Hemangiomas
    TUMORS OF BLOOD VESSELS CHARLES F. GESCHICKTER, M.D. (From tke Surgical Palkological Laboratory, Department of Surgery, Johns Hopkins Hospital and University) AND LOUISA E. KEASBEY, M.D. (Lancaster Gcaeral Hospital, Lancuster, Pennsylvania) Tumors of the blood vessels are perhaps as common as any form of neoplasm occurring in the human body. The greatest number of these lesions are benign angiomas of the body surfaces, small elevated red areas which remain without symptoms throughout life and are not subjected to treatment. Larger tumors of this type which undergb active growth after birth or which are situated about the face or oral cavity, where they constitute cosmetic defects, are more often the object of surgical removal. The majority of the vascular tumors clinically or pathologically studied fall into this latter group. Benign angiomas of similar pathologic nature occur in all of the internal viscera but are most common in the liver, where they are disclosed usually at autopsy. Angiomas of the bone, muscle, and the central nervous system are of less common occurrence, but, because of the symptoms produced, a higher percentage are available for study. Malignant lesions of the blood vessels are far more rare than was formerly supposed. An occasional angioma may metastasize following trauma or after repeated recurrences, but less than 1per cent of benign angiomas subjected to treatment fall into this group. I Primarily ma- lignant tumors of the vascular system-angiosarcomas-are equally rare. The pathological criteria for these growths have never been ade- quately established, and there is no general agreement as to this par- ticular form of tumor.

Abstract This review provides a comprehensive overview of the broad clinicopathologic spectrum of cutaneous Kaposi sarcoma (KS) lesions. Variants discussed include: usual KS lesions associated with disease progression (i.e. patch, plaque and nodular stage); morphologic subtypes alluded to in the older literature such as anaplastic and telangiectatic KS, as well as several lymphedematous variants; and numerous recently described variants including hyperkeratotic, keloidal, micronodular, pyogenic granuloma-like, ecchymotic, and intravascular KS. Involuting lesions as a result of treatment related regression are also presented.
