A pediatric case of TEK-Related malformations and marfanoid habitus : an incidental finding or a feature?

Copyright by International Society of Lymphology..

Vascular malformations encompass a wide range of complex vascular lesions. Due to the extreme variability of clinical presentation, classification and their related syndromes presents a challenge. Here we describe a case of a boy presenting with Marfanoid habitus, cutaneous vascular malformations, and severe acute anemia due to ileal venous malformations. Although a panel of genetic markers for the Marfan phenotype was negative, we identified a de novo mutation in the TEK gene in the patient. This case supports expansion of the phenotypic spectrum of TEK-related vascular malformations.
