2014, Anales de PediatriaGorham disease of the lumbar spine with an abdominal aortic aneurysm: A case report
2014, Spine JournalCitation Excerpt :It has been reported frequently in the shoulder and pelvic region; however, it rarely occurs in the spine. Heffez et al. [3] reported that one of the diagnostic criteria of Gorham disease is the absence of visceral involvement, although some studies [4–6] have suggestion that the disease involves the viscera. We herein report the case of a patient with Gorham disease in the lumber spine involving an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).
CT features of generalized lymphangiomatosis in adult patients
2013, Clinical ImagingCitation Excerpt :Typical findings were multiple faint radiolucencies, osteopenia, ill-defined margins, and the absence of a periosteal reaction. They found a well-defined lesion with a sclerotic rim, which is similar to our lesions in a few cases [16]. In our series, demarcation with a sclerotic rim was seen in most lesions; moreover, these sclerotic rims were highly enhanced on post-enhanced T1-weighted images on MRI.
Progressively bilateral resorption of the mandible
2012, Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :When neoplastic, metabolic, infectious, hereditary, and immunologic disorders are ruled out, the diagnosis of GSS must be considered. Recent data suggests that GSS is one of the angiomatous processes caused by some lymphangiogenic factors such as, VEGF-C, VEGF-D as well as VEGF (Aviv et al., 2001). Thus the level of VEGF becomes crucial.
