Fibro-adipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) is characterized by intramuscular vascular malformation with secondary overgrowth of further mesenchymal elements, particularly fibro-adipose tissue. A rare disease complicated by nonspecific, overlapping clinical and imaging features, FAVA is often misdiagnosed, causing a dilemma in its diagnostic and therapeutical management. We present a case of FAVA of the lower extremity.
纤维脂肪性血管异常(FAVA)的特征是肌内血管畸形,并伴有其他间充质成分(特别是纤维脂肪组织)的继发性过度生长。FAVA是一种罕见疾病,伴有非特异性、重叠的临床和影像学特征,常被误诊,给其诊断和治疗管理带来难题。我们报告一例下肢FAVA病例。
