Importance of GLUT1 in differential diagnosis of vascular anomalies

Abstract: Vascular anomalies (VAs) include a group of distinct lesions, such as vascular system congenital malformations, as well as benign and malignant vascular tumors. These lesions may present similar clinical and histopathological features, leading to mistaken diagnoses and incorrect treatment choices. It is important that professionals responsible for monitoring the development of VAs conduct precise investigations and use the appropriate terminology. The human glucose transporter protein isoform 1 (GLUT1) has bee… Show more

“…Currently, Glut-1 protein (glucose transport protein 1), an immuno-histochemical marker expressed in classic infantile hemangiomas, contributes to diagnosis of hemangioma when the classic histopathologic examination is impossible [ 14 ]. Furthermore, Glut-1 can be used to differentiate infantile hemangioma from other vascular anomalies [ 15 ].…”

“…El SSW debe diagnosticarse de forma diferencial con respecto a los hemangiomas infantiles, que son los tumores benignos infantiles más frecuentes y que habitualmente involucionan con el tiempo; molecularmente las células endoteliales de los hemangiomas infantiles son positivas para Glut-1, pero las células endoteliales del SSW no lo son 25 . Otros diagnósticos diferenciales incluyen el síndrome de Rendu-Osler-Weber, el síndrome de Angio-osteodistrofia, el síndrome de Maffuci, la enfermedad de Von Hippel Lindau y el síndrome de Klippel Trenaumy-Weber 17 .…”
