Vascular malformations are localized or diffuse errors of embryonic development resulting in collections of abnormal vessels with normal endothelium. Many authors have pointed out the confusing terminology of vascular anomalies that has led to improper diagnosis and therapy. This still remains confused in clinical practice, especially in cases occurring at rare regions or presenting atypical radiologic findings. We present a huge retroperitoneal lymphovenous malformation, which exhibited unusual radiologic findings and was difficult to confirm the diagnosis that occurred in a 12-year-old male.
血管畸形是胚胎发育的局部或弥漫性异常,导致具有正常内皮的异常血管聚集。许多作者指出,血管异常的术语令人困惑,这导致了诊断和治疗不当。在临床实践中,这仍然存在混淆,特别是在罕见部位发生或呈现非典型影像学表现的病例中。我们报告一例巨大的腹膜后淋巴静脉畸形,该病例表现出不寻常的影像学表现,难以确诊,发生在一名12岁男性身上。
