Surgical Navigation and CAD-CAM-Designed PEEK Prosthesis for the Surgical Treatment of Facial Intraosseous Vascular Anomalies. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4602. [PMID: 39200744 PMCID: PMC11354805 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13164602] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2024] [Revised: 07/28/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Intraosseous vascular anomalies in the facial skeleton present significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to complex anatomy. These anomalies represent about 0.5-1% of bony neoplastic and tumor-like lesions, usually presenting as a firm, painless mass. Most described intraosseous vascular malformations are venous malformations (VMs) and, more rarely, arteriovenous malformations. Objectives: The objectives of this work are to show our experience, protocol and the applications of computer planning, virtual surgery, CAD-CAM design, surgical navigation, and computer-assisted navigated piezoelectric surgery in the treatment of facial intraosseous vascular anomalies and to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages. Methods: Three females and one male with periorbital intraosseous vascular anomalies were treated using en-block resection and immediate reconstruction with a custom-made PEEK prosthesis. One lesion was in the supraorbital rim and orbital roof, one in the frontal bone and orbital roof, and two in the zygomatic region. We accomplished the resection and reconstruction of the lesion using virtual planning, CAD-CAM design, surgical navigation and piezoelectric device navigation. Results: There were no complications related to the surgery assisted with navigation. With an accuracy of less than 1 mm, the procedure may be carried out in accordance with the surgical plan. The surgeon's degree of uncertainty during deep osteotomies and in locations with low visibility was decreased by the use of the navigated piezoelectric device. Conclusions: Resection and reconstruction of facial intraosseous vascular anomalies benefit from this new surgical strategy using CAD-CAM technologies, computer-assisted navigated piezoelectric surgery, and surgical navigation.

Insights Imaging 2024; 15:135. [PMID: 38853199 PMCID: PMC11162993 DOI: 10.1186/s13244-024-01712-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Doppler ultrasound (DUS) findings with the pathological findings of soft tissue vascular tumors (STVTs) according to the 2018 ISSVA (International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies) classification to differentiate vascular tumors from vascular malformations. METHODS This retrospective study included patients with STVTs who underwent contrast-enhanced MRI and pathological analysis at our hospital between 2010 and 2020. The presumptive diagnosis based on the on-site imaging and histological analysis was compared with imaging and histological analysis conducted off-site utilizing the ISSVA criteria. RESULTS This study included 31 patients with 31 vascular tumors located in the head and neck (n = 3), trunk (n = 2), and extremities (n = 26). The off-site pathological analysis confirmed benign vascular tumors in 54.8% of cases (non-involuting congenital hemangioma: 35.5%; epithelioid hemangioma: 13%; pyogenic granuloma: 3%; and spindle cell hemangioma: 3%). Based on the off-site histological analysis, 25.8% were reclassified as having a vascular malformation whereas three had other benign lesions. Only phleboliths were associated with a vascular malformation (p = 0.03). The concordance between off-site MRI and pathological findings was fair (k = 0.3902 (0.0531-0.7274)), whereas that between on-site and off-site pathological analyses was poor (k = -0.0949 (-0.4661 to 0.2763)). CONCLUSION Benign vascular tumors have non-specific imaging features on imaging with some overlap with atypical vascular malformations. Therefore, histological analysis is recommended. Imaging and pathological analyses should be performed in accordance with the ISSVA classification to minimize inter-observer discrepancies. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Imaging features of benign vascular tumors on MRI are non-specific, leading to discrepancies with pathological findings and potential overlap with atypical vascular malformations. Imaging and histological analyses should be performed in accordance with ISSVA guidelines to improve patient management. KEY POINTS The imaging features of benign vascular tumors are non-specific. Histological analysis is recommended for soft tissue vascular tumors in adults. Analyses of soft tissue vascular tumors should be performed in accordance with ISSVA guidelines.

Abstract
This narrative review aims to summarise the classification of vascular anomalies, their clinical presentation, and their radiological features to propose a diagnostic algorithm to approach patients with suspected soft tissue vascular anomalies of the extremities. The management of vascular anomalies necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. Clinical presentation and physical examination are sufficient in most cases to achieve a correct diagnosis. This is especially true for small congenital lesions of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Imaging is used for accurate characterization of these lesions, especially in cases of atypical or vague clinical presentation, and to assess extension in cases of lesions that are larger and localized in deeper tissues.

Abstract
Here, we report a case of a woman in her 50s who was referred for an incidentally discovered lesion anterior to the origin of inferior vena cava suspicious for a paraganglioma following a CT scan for vaginal bleeding. A follow-up 68Ga-DOTATATE PET-CT and MRI of the abdomen reinforced the radiological impression of an extra-adrenal paraganglioma (EAP). The EAP was deemed non-functional given normal urine biogenic amine, supine plasma fractionated metanephrines and chromogranin A levels. The mass was resected laparoscopically without perioperative blockade. Histological examination revealed a venous malformation. Extrahepatic abdominal venous malformations are rare and can be indistinguishable from an EAP on imaging preoperatively. Although benign, the lesion nevertheless warrants excision as it is associated with a risk of haemorrhage.

Abstract
There continuous to be widespread misuse of nomenclature used to described vascular anomalies, This is even more pronounced in the case of intra-osseous lesions. Bone involvement is more common with vascular malformations and extremely rare in haemangiomas. An accurate diagnosis is mandatory for tailored management and often based on a thorough history, clinical examination, and cross-sectional imaging. Surgery remains the main stay for the management of symptomatic venous malformations. Embolisation with or without surgery is the main stay for arteriovenous malformations. Virtual surgical planning, with surgical guides and patient specific implants help achieve predictably excellent results.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive summary of the clinical and radiological features of zygomatic intraosseous venous malformations (IVM), as well as its treatment strategies. The aim is to establish preoperative diagnostic bases that will aid in the identification of zygomatic IVM and facilitate the implementation of effective treatment. Four cases of pathologically diagnosed zygomatic IVM with typical clinical and radiological features were reported. They exhibited comparable clinical and radiological features, and the En bloc excision and reconstruction yielded satisfactory outcome. Pooled data analysis was performed with additional 74 cases collected from 63 previous studies. The results revealed a higher incidence of zygomatic IVMs in middle-aged females, with swelling, pain and ocular dysfunction being the typical clinical manifestations. The characteristic radiological features of these lesions were well-defined, round bony structures with specific internal trabecular patterns. A diagnostic flow-chart assisting the differential diagnosis of IVM was established. En bloc excision was deemed the most advantageous treatment option, as it presented minimal risk of haemorrhaging and no instances of recurrence. The decision to pursue reconstruction was contingent upon the extent of the defect. Alloplastic material has emerged as the most frequently employed reconstruction material in recent reports. The summarized characteristics of zygomatic IVM and the proposed diagnostic and treatment strategies, derived from the pooled analysis of reported cases, may help to improve diagnosis and management in further clinical practice.

Abstract
Hemangioma is a congenital vascular malformation that occurs commonly in the skin and soft tissues of younger individuals but rarely in the bone. The term hemangioma occurring in bone has been referred to as venous bony malformation also. In these rare cases, vertebral bodies occur more often, followed by the craniofacial skeleton and long bones. Most rib tumors are malignant, and hemangiomas of the rib tend to grow expansively and disrupt the cortex. Venous malformations in ribs are not tumors but can be misdiagnosed as aggressive tumors or infectious processes. In fact, hemangioma of bone is a locally aggressive benign vascular malformation associated with a good prognosis. To date, no more than 50 cases of rib hemangiomas have been described in the English literature. This report presents a case of an asymptomatic 27-year-old female patient who found a quail egg-sized lump on the right side of her chest that was the size of a cocoon 2 months prior. Then, the lump grew rapidly to the size of an egg when she presented to the hospital. Because of its worrisome histomorphologic features and aggressive clinical radiologic findings, it was once misdiagnosed as a malignant tumor by most doctors. However, the pathological results after the operation confirmed rib hemangioma. Therefore, this case report aims to share this particular case so that more doctors can better understand the particularity of this disease's progression.

Abstract
Vascular tumors are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the skin and subcutis, and they encompass a heterogeneous group with diverse clinical, histological, and molecular features, as well as biological behavior. Over the past two decades, molecular studies have enabled the identification of pathogenic recurrent genetic alterations that can be used as additional data points to support the correct classification of these lesions. The purpose of this review is to summarize the available data related to superficially located benign and low-grade vascular neoplasms and to highlight recent molecular advances with the role of surrogate immunohistochemistry to target pathogenic proteins as diagnostic biomarkers.

Abstract
Intraosseous venous malformations represent a subtype of venous vascular malformations that arise primarily in bone. In the head and neck, intraosseous venous malformations are most frequently found in the skull, skull base, and facial skeleton, with location at the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve perhaps the most widely recognized. These non-neoplastic lesions are characterized by dilated venous channels with characteristic internal bony spicules on CT but may present with a more complex appearance on MR imaging and may share features with more aggressive lesions. Further confounding the imaging-based diagnosis of intraosseous venous malformation is the frequent misrepresentation of these lesions as hemangiomas in the radiology and clinical literature, as well as in daily practice. Because most intraosseous venous malformations can be left alone, their correct diagnosis may spare a patient unnecessary concern and intervention.
