Cavernous hemangioma of the larynx is an uncommon, difficult-to-diagnose vascular tumor for which there is no significant imaging literature to date. The possibility of improved diagnosis through RBC scanning might obviate injudicious biopsy and potential hemorrhage within the airway. Utilizing the radionuclide RBC scan, which labels the patient's own RBCs initially with cold pyrophosphate, and subsequently with technetium 99m as pertechnetate, we have identified successfully four patients with cavernous hemangioma of the larynx. All presented with a supraglottic mass involving at least the aryepiglottic fold and arytenoid region unilaterally. This report describes our satisfactory diagnostic imaging experience with the radionuclide RBC scan and suggests both its imaging specificity and its role in the management of this lesion.

Aims: According to a novel in-utero classification termed “umbilical-portal-systemic venous shunt (UPSVS)” recently proposed for an abnormal umbilical, portal and ductal venous system, the portal-systemic shunt belongs to type III UPSVS. This study was designed to examine the ultrasonographic characteristics and outcome of type III UPSVS.Material and methods: All cases of Type III UPSVS diagnosed at our department from April 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively studied.Results: Seventeen patients with type III UPSVS including 12 type IIIa and 5 IIIb cases were identified. Sonography showed a shunt between the inferior left portal vein and the left hepatic vein in all type IIIa cases. Three cases of type IIIb had a combination of another shunt (2 with type I and one with type IIIa). Integrate intrahepatic portal vein system was not seen in those 2 cases of type IIIb combined with type I UPSVS, leading to termination of pregnancy (TOP). TOP occurred in 4 patients with type IIIa as requested by the parents. Two cases (type IIIa and type IIIb each) underwent surgical procedure for the closure of the shunt. Spontaneous complete closure in 4 type IIIa cases and partial closure in one type IIIb case occurred during a period of 3-16 months.Conclusions: The majority of patients had type IIIa UPSVS presenting a good outcome. The lack of integrate intrahepatic portal vein system was the main reason for TOP in patients with type IIIb UPSVS. These data suggest the UPSVS classification is a useful tool for a prognosis prediction of type III UPSVS.
