Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome:A Rare Cause of NonHealing Ulcer

“…(8) Yet another theory postulates that intra-uterine damage to the sympathetic ganglia or inferiomedial lateral tract leads to microscopic AV communications. (9) The clinical features are usually that of a haemangioma that appears first and at birth. The same may be present on any part of the body although the face and cervical region are most commonly affected.…”

Arteriovenous malformation of the hand with involvement of bone

“…This lesion is believed to be the most common mass of skeletal muscle and is second only to lipoma as the most common soft tissue tumor of the extremities; it may involve connective tissue, tendon joint, or bone [2].…”

“…Acquired lesions may be due to trauma or secondary to neoplasm, inflammation, or vascular disease [1]. It is believed that they are never malignant [2]. bruit, neuromuscular changes, edema, cyanosis, gait abnormality, and cardiac decompensation may occur.…”

“…bruit, neuromuscular changes, edema, cyanosis, gait abnormality, and cardiac decompensation may occur. Increased skin temperature and Branham's sign (slowing of heart rate with occlusion of the artery supplying the lesion) are common [2].…”

Clitoromegaly in Childhood and Adolescence: Behind One Clinical Sign, a Clinical Sea

“…According to one theory, a mesodermal defect arising during fetal life induces the persistence of microscopic arteriovenous communications (AVCs) [Baskerville et al, 1985]. Other researchers hypothesize that intrauterine injury to the inferomedial lateral tract or to the sympathetic ganglia induces formation of microscopic AVCs [Bliznak and Staple, 1974]. Somatic abnormalities due to phakomatosis (disorder of neural crest tissue) and abnormal regulation of end capillaries by the sympathetic nervous system has been proposed as another possible cause [You et al, 1983].…”
