Melanocytic nevus Acquired moles are a form of benign neoplasm, while congenital moles, or congenital nevi, are considered a minor malformation or hamartoma and may be at a higher risk for melanoma. A mole can be either subdermal (under the skin) or a pigmented growth on the skin, formed mostly of a type of cell known as a melanocyte. The high concentration of the body's pigmenting agent, melanin, is responsible for their dark color. Moles are a member of the family of skin lesions known as nevi.

Lymphangioma Having lymphangioma does not pose a health threat unless it happens in the fetus. If they show up in the early part of fetal development the cystic lymphangioma can cause the accumulation of fluid and can result in the death of the fetus.

Mole or Melanoma? Tell-Tale Signs in Benign Nevi and Malignant Melanoma: Slideshow A congenital nevus is a proliferation of benign melanocytes that is either present at birth or develops shortly afterwards. Congenital nevi are usually classified by size: small (less than 1.5 cm in diameter), medium (larger than 1.5 cm and up to 20 cm) or giant (measuring 20 cm in diameter or larger).

Infantile hemangioma An infantile hemangioma (IH) is one of the most common benign tumors of infancy and occurs in approximately 5–10% of infants. The word hemangioma comes from the Greek haema- (αίμα), blood; angeio (αγγείο), vessel; -oma (-ωμα), tumor.

- Dr. Ralph Morgan Lewis Dr. Lewis. 1 doctor agreed: Lymph vessel tumor: Lymphangioma is the term for a tumor composed of lymphatic vessels; there are 3 types: capillary, cavernous, & cystic hygroma. 50% are present at birth, 90% by age 2 yrs; a rare tumor that accounts for 4% of vascular tumors in children.

Lymphangioma Age. Lymphangioma can become evident at any age, but the greatest incidence occurs at birth or early in life. About 50% of lymphangiomas are seen at birth, and most lymphangiomas are evident by the time the patient is aged 5 years.

lymphangioma cystic lymphangioma (lymphangioma cys´ticum) cystic hygroma. simple lymphangioma (lymphangioma sim´plex) one composed of small lymphatic channels that occurs subcutaneously in the head and neck region, in the axilla, and sometimes in internal organs. Superficial lesions are slightly raised or sometimes nodular; deeper lesions are sharply circumscribed, compressible, and gray to pink in color.

Vascular Malformations on Hand Vascular malformations. These are congenital malformations that consist of capillary, venous, arterial, or lymphatic abnormalities. There are often combined malformations that comprise different types of vessels. Examples of vascular malformations include port-wine stains (capillary malformation), cystic hygroma (lymphatic malformation), and venous malformations. Vascular malformations are present at birth and grow proportionately with the child.

Congenital Brain and Spine Malformations Types of congenital malformations. Other congenital malformations of the brain and spine include: Chiari malformation – This is a condition in which portions of the brain, the cerebellar tonsils protrude, into the upper spine, compressing the brain or spinal cord. Left untreated, this condition can lead to:1  Neck pain.2  Hoarseness.here are numerous variations of congenital malformations of the bone and soft tissue of the head and spine, including neural tube defects such as spina bifida.

Lymphogranuloma venereum Written By: Lymphogranuloma venereum, also called lymphogranuloma inguinale or Nicolas-Favre disease, infection of lymph vessels and lymph nodes by the microorganism Chlamydia trachomatis. Like chlamydia, which is also a disease caused by C. trachomatis, lymphogranuloma venereum is usually sexually transmitted. The disease produces swollen lymph nodes, ulcerations, enlargement of genital organs, and rectal stricture. Lymphogranuloma venereum occurs throughout most of the world, especially in tropical and subtropical areas.

Genetics of human hydrocephalus Animal hydrocephalus models have many histopathological similarities to humans and can be used to understand the genetics and pathogenesis of brain damage [ 59 – 64 ]. It has been well documented in the animal models that in the majority of cases, congenital hydrocephalus is a genetic disease.

Abstract Download PDF. Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are the most common vascular tumors of childhood, affecting ∼5% of all infants. Although most lesions proliferate and then involute with minimal consequence, a significant minority can be disfiguring, functionally significant, or, rarely, life-threatening. Recent discoveries concerning hemangioma pathogenesis provide both an improved understanding and more optimal approach to workup and management.

Congenital vertebral anomaly Butterfly vertebrae have a sagittal cleft through the body of the vertebrae and a funnel shape at the ends. This gives the appearance of a butterfly on an x-ray. It is caused by persistence of the notochord (which usually only remains as the center of the intervertebral disc) during vertebrae formation.emivertebrae are wedge-shaped vertebrae and therefore can cause an angle in the spine (such as kyphosis, scoliosis, and lordosis). Among the congenital vertebral anomalies, hemivertebrae are the most likely to cause neurologic problems.

To view the best illustration of muscle funtion that I've ever seen produced by Alan Beggs click here. Centronuclear (CNM) and X-linked Myotubular Myopathies (XLMTM) are rare genetic disorders (also known as orphan diseases). These particular genetic disorders affect skeletal muscle tissue. The severity of the disease differs from case to case, ranging from slightly debilitating to fatal.

Background Hemangioma is the most common benign tumor affecting the liver. Hepatic hemangiomas are mesenchymal in origin and usually are solitary. Some authorities consider them to be benign congenital hamartomas. Hemangiomas are composed of masses of blood vessels that are atypical or irregular in arrangement and size.
