The Authors describe a case of neonatal hemorrhagic syndrome associated with a large hemangioma on the left lower limb with an unfavourable prognosis. The clinical, biohumoral and anatomicopathological characteristics indicate a Kasabach-Merrit syndrome (SKM) with massive platelet sequestration in

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative brain disorder and the most common form of dementia coming along with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) in more than 70% of all cases. However, CAA occurs also in pure form without AD pathology. Vascular life style risk factors such as

Vascular congenital abnormalities are common in children and are often seen in skin and soft tissues. They are rarely observed in internal organs. They may be found singly or in a multiple fashion. The liver is the most frequently affected organ by this disease. The most common histological variety

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 association of a mixed anaemia (by occult haemorrhage and microangiopathic haemolysis) with a thrombocytopaenia led to a search for a digestive angioma. Arteriography, followed by exploratory laparotomy with preoperative enteroscopy and frozen section histological examination, led to the

Hemangioma is the most frequent focal liver lesion. It affects mainly women and may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, mass, and early satiety, or complications such as heart failure or coagulopathy (Kasabach-Merrit syndrome). Although, surgical resection is the only curative treatment for

OBJECTIVE A small but significant percentage of vascular tumors may develop at extracutaneous location. They are difficult to detect on the physical exam and usually they require immediate intervention. Pediatric surgeons must have acknowledge of its prognostic and therapeutic

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 strong correlation was previously observed between carbon isotope discrimination (Delta(13)C) of phloem sap sugars and phloem sap sugar concentration in the phloem-bleeding tree Eucalyptus globulus Labill. (J. Pate, E. Shedley, D. Arthur, M. Adams [1998] Oecologia 117: 312-322). We hypothesized

A recently described phloem-bleeding technique was used to study seasonal changes in δ13C, sugar levels and the amino acid:sugar balance of phloem translocate of 2- to 3-year old trees of Eucalyptus globulus at a rain-fed site (Eulup) and a waste-effluent-irrigated site (Albany) in south-west

During the past 16 years, 22 Thai infants with extensive hemangiomas which impaired bodily functions and were life-threatening, especially in Kasabach-Merrit Syndrome have been treated. The incidence of female-to-male ratio was 8:3, all of the hemangiomas appeared between birth and 3 months of age.

BACKGROUND To investigate machine learning methods, ranging from simpler interpretable techniques to complex (non-linear) "black-box" approaches, for automated diagnosis of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). METHODS Data from healthy subjects and patients diagnosed with AMD or other retinal

Spontaneous bleeding of sugar-rich sap from cambial-deep incisions in the bark of trunks was demonstrated for Eucalyptus globulus and other eucalypts across a range of localities and seasonal conditions in south-west Australia. High levels of sucrose and raffinose (up to 31% w/v total sugars) were
