| neurocutaneous melanosis | Cutaneous giant pigmented nevi associated with melanosis of the leptomeninges; malignant melanomas may develop in the skin or meninges. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| neurocutaneous syndrome | <syndrome> The occurrence of nevi and sometimes various skeletal deformities with symptoms pointing to gliosis or abiotrophy of the central nervous system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angioma | <dermatology, oncology> A knot of distended blood vessels atypically and irregularly arranged. most are not tumours but haematomas. (06 Mar 1998) |
| angioma lymphaticum | <oncology, tumour> A localised collection of lymphatic vessels resulting in a nodule or mass. most are congenital. (27 Sep 1997) |
| capillary angioma | <dermatology> Red or purple-coloured vascular skin markings that develop shortly after birth. Most are usually painless and benign and sharply demarcated from surrounding skin, usually located on the head and neck, and grow rapidly. It is caused by proliferation of immature capillary vessels in active stroma, and is usually present at birth or occurs within the first two or three months of life. Some lesions (cavernous haemangioma) will disappear or become harder to see as the child approaches school age. Localised steroid injections have been used successfully to reduce the size of a birthmark but generally they undergo spontaneous regression and involution without scarring and normally require no treatment. (07 Mar 2000) |
| venous angioma | <radiology> Caput medusae, wedge-shaped appearance with its base at the meninges and its apex directed toward the ventricles, prominent medullary vein drains into a markedly enlarged transcortical cerebral vein, angiogram: normal arterial phase without AV shunting (12 Dec 1998) |
| cavernous angioma | Vascular malformation composed of sinusoidal vessels without a large feeding artery; can be multiple, especially if inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Synonym: nevus cavernosus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cherry angioma | <oncology, tumour> A benign and common skin growth which is characterised by smooth, bright red growth that may be a millimetre to one quater inch across. Diagnosis is made by appearance of the lesion. More commonly seen on the trunk in individuals over 40 years of age. No treatment is necessary, although cosmetic removal via cryotherapy may be an option. (27 Sep 1997) |
| superficial angioma | <dermatology> Red or purple-coloured vascular skin markings that develop shortly after birth. Most are usually painless and benign and sharply demarcated from surrounding skin, usually located on the head and neck, and grow rapidly. It is caused by proliferation of immature capillary vessels in active stroma, and is usually present at birth or occurs within the first two or three months of life. Some lesions (cavernous haemangioma) will disappear or become harder to see as the child approaches school age. Localised steroid injections have been used successfully to reduce the size of a birthmark but generally they undergo spontaneous regression and involution without scarring and normally require no treatment. (07 Mar 2000) |
| telangiectatic angioma | <tumour> Angioma composed of dilated vessels. Angioma venosum racemosum, tortuous swelling caused by varicosities of superficial veins. Venous angioma, vascular anomaly composed of anomalous veins. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy | An inherited form of hyperparathyroidism associated with ectopic calcification and ossification and skeletal defects, notably the small fourth metacarpals, but intelligence is normal. There are dominant, recessive and X-linked forms. See: pseudohypoparathyroidism. Synonym: Albright's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angioedema, hereditary | A genetic form of angioedema. (Angioedema is also referred to as Quinke's disease.) Persons with it are born lacking an inhibitor protein (called C1 esterase inhibitor) that normally prevents activation of a cascade of proteins leading to the swelling of angioedema. Patients can develop recurrent attacks of swollen tissues, pain in the abdomen, and swelling of the voice box (larynx) which can compromise breathing. The diagnosis is suspected with a history of recurrent angioedema. It is confirmed by finding abnormally low levels of C1 esterase inhibitor in the blood. Treatment options include antihistamines and male steroids (androgens) that can also prevent the recurrent attacks. Also called hereditary angioneurotic oedema. (12 Dec 1998) |

| canine hereditary blindness | An autosomal dominant condition seen in dogs of the collie and several other breeds. (05 Mar 2000) |
| colourectal neoplasms, hereditary nonpolyposis | A syndrome characterised by autosomal dominant inheritance, a low mean age (41 years) for occurrence of colon cancer, and a marked increase in the proportion of tumours in the proximal colon. (12 Dec 1998) |
