Background Changes in the composition of the extracellular matrix (ECM) occur between the proliferating and involuted phases of infantile hemangiomas (IH), and are associated with angiogenic growth. We examined the composition of the ECM in proliferating and involuted IHs and assessed correlations between the composition of the ECM and whether the IH was in the proliferating or the involuted phase. Methods We evaluated IH samples from a cohort of patients who had five proliferating IHs and five involuted IHs. The following ECM molecules were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and immunohistochemistry: laminin, fibronectin, collagen type I, collagen type II, and collagen type III. Results The involuted IHs had higher levels of deposition of collagen type III than the proliferating IHs. The median values (interquartile ranges) were 1.135 (0.946-1.486) and 1.008 (0.780- 1.166) (P=0.019), respectively. The level of laminin was higher in involuted IHs than in proliferating IHs, with median values (interquartile ranges) of 3.191 (2.945-3.191) and 2.479 (1.699- 3.284) (P=0.047), respectively. Abundant collagen type III staining was found in involuted IHs. Laminin ${\alpha}4$ chain staining was clearly present within the basement membrane adjacent to the blood vessels, and was significantly more intense in involuted IHs than in proliferative IHs. Conclusions Involuted hemangiomas showed extensive deposition of collagen III and laminin, suggesting that differences in the composition of the ECM reflect stages of the development of IHs. This pattern may be due to the rapid senescence of IHs.

Surgical Management of Scalp Infantile Hemangiomas
Cho, Young Kyoo,Ryu, Dong Wan,Chung, Ho Yun,O, Teresa M.,Blei, Francine,Waner, Milton by Mutaz B. Habal, MD. 2015 JOURNAL OF CRANIOFACIAL SURGERY - Vol.26 No.4
BACKGROUND:: Scalp infantile hemangiomas (IHs) are usually focal lesions that can be both disfiguring and may lead to complications such as ulceration and bleeding. The clinical features of scalp IHs have not been previously studied. This study aims to identify the clinical characteristics associated with scalp IH, the indications for surgical intervention, and results of surgical treatment. METHODS:: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients with scalp IH presenting to a tertiary care referral center over the past 7 years. Patients’ demographics, clinical features, location, and treatment course were noted. RESULTS:: One hundred fifty-one of 1916 total IH patients presented with a diagnosis of scalp IH (8%). The distribution of the scalp lesions was the following: 31.8% frontal, 46.7% parietal, 7.9% occipital, and 9.9% temporal. Fifty-eight percent were solitary and 42% were multifocal lesions. The size range of scalp IH is 1 × 1 cm to 8 × 6 cm. Two percent of patients with scalp IH presented with other facial IH. Primary indications for surgery were secondary to complications such as ulceration (23.2%) and alopecia (51.7%). Surgery included elliptical excision with primary closure (85.7%) or with rotational flap closure (14.3%). The average age of surgery was 3 years (1–8 years). Most patients had a good aesthetic outcome with satisfactory hair growth. CONCLUSION:: Scalp IHs are morbid tumors which often cause alopecia and/or ulceration. In our experience, many scalp IHs eventually require surgical intervention. We find that early surgical excision is beneficial, as the tissues are easily manipulated secondary to scalp/soft tissue laxity and scarring is more favorable.

Expression Patterns of HIF-1α Under Hypoxia in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells of Venous Malformations

PURPOSE: The molecular pathophysiology of venous malformations (VMs), which are a type of vascular malformation, is poorly understood. Until now, it is known that VM lesions are related to the process of angiogenesis. Because angiogenesis is induced under hypoxic conditions, hypoxia is thought to be important in VM lesion formation. Therefore, we examined the implications of hypoxia on the biological behavior of VM vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In doing so, we investigated the expression patterns of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), which plays a key role in hypoxia-induced angiogenesis, to provide a further understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in VM. METHODS: Vascular smooth muscle cells from 5 normal veins and 5 VM lesions were cultured under moderate hypoxic conditions (3% O2, 5% CO2). The effects of hypoxia on HIF-1α expression were measured by immunocytochemical staining, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: Overall, the expression of HIF-1α in cells was high after exposure to hypoxia for 6 or 12 hours, but decreased after 24 hours of hypoxia. HIF-1α expression in VM VSMCs was 2 times higher than that in normal VSMCs. Immunocytochemically, HIF-1α was mainly located in the nucleus and the intensity in VM VSMCs was stronger after 6 and 12 hours of hypoxia when compared to the expression pattern of HIF-1α in VSMCs from normal tissue. This suggested that VM tissue is more susceptible to the effects of hypoxia than normal tissue. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that the high expression of HIF-1α in VM VSMCs under hypoxic conditions could be an important factor for stimulating downstream angiogenesis in VM. Furthermore, the results of this investigation could provide the basis for future studies of VM pathophysiology, and ultimately lead to the development of new therapeutic approaches.
