Hepatic hemangioma is the most frequent liver's tumor. The majority are small, asymptomatic and have an excellent prognosis. Those larger than 5 cm can be associated to a consumptive coagulopathy called Kasabach-Merrit syndrome. We present a patient with a giant hepatic hemangioma with multiple
Kasabach-Merrit syndrome (KMS) is very rarely observed in adults associated with visceral hemangiomas. Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) is a very rare clinical entity with an intermediate malignant potential and a mortality rate of 20-30%. We described a case of KMS associated with
Diffuse infantile haemangiomatosis of the spleen is a very rare lesion. Large haemangiomas may cause trapping of platelets and coagulation disorders known as Kasabach-Merrit syndrome. We here report the case of an infant with splenic and pancreatic haemangiomatosis presenting with life-threatening
Kasabach-Merrit phenomenon (KMP) is a rare disorder of pediatric hematological malignancies which is previously referred to Kasabach-Merrit syndrome (KMS). The disorder is characterized by prominent vascular mass resulting from abnormal proliferation of blood vessels, consumption coagulopathy and
The Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital disorder. The obstetric course of women with KTS varies. Complications include bleeding, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), thromboembolic events, etc. PATIENT CONCERNS:: Here, we report a case of late puerperal The hepatic multicentric haemangioma is defined by its extension, affecting all the mass of the liver. The high mortality associated with it is mostly related with the complications produced by its enormous size (haemodynamic, platelet trapping, spontaneous rupture and bleeding). There is a general
A 20 year-old female patient with Kasabach-Merrit syndrome, suffered from chronic consumption coagulopathy due to localized intravascular coagulation in the tumors. She had been diagnosed as Kasabach-Merrit syndrome immediately after birth and below knee amputation of her right lower leg was
Hepatic hemangiomas are congenital vascular malformations, considered the most common benign mesenchymal hepatic tumors, composed of masses of blood vessels that are atypical or irregular in arrangement and size. Hepatic hemangiomas can be divided into two major groups: capillary hemangiomas and
Liver haemangiomas are consistently reported to be the commonest benign liver tumours and are most often incidental findings in asymptomatic individuals. Large lesions can become symptomatic, spontaneously rupture or result in a consumptive coagulopathy known as Kasabach-Merrit Syndrome. It is
Congenital diffuse hemangiomatous involvement of the entire left thigh and knee joint in a 12-year-old girl was complicated by a Kasabach-Merrit type of consumptive coagulopathy. Repeated pathologic fractures of the left femur resulted in a nonunion. She also had a progressively increasing
