Abstract

Background Cutaneous cherry angioma (CA) and hepatic hemangioma (HH) are the most common types of acquired vascular proliferations that develop during aging process with unknown etiologies. The role of angiogenic and hormonal factors has been proposed in inducing these vascular lesions. Objective To compare the frequency of HH in persons with and without CA. Patients and methods This case–control study consisted of 160 patients including 80 patients with CA and 80 patients without CA. Sex, age, history of contraceptive pills intake, number of pregnancies, BMI, number of the CA lesions, and liver ultrasound findings were collected for all participants. Results HH was detected significantly more frequently in the participants with CA (P<0.001), but there was no significant association between number of CA and number of HH (P=0.837). History of oral contraceptive pill intake was significantly more frequent in women with HH, but this history was not significantly more frequent in women with CA compared with control group. Conclusion HH was significantly more frequent in participants with CA. Thus, CA may be a cutaneous marker for HH.

樱桃血管瘤患者肝血管瘤的评价

背景皮肤樱桃血管瘤（CA）和肝血管瘤（HH）是最常见的获得性血管增生类型，它们在衰老过程中发展，病因不明。血管生成和激素因子在诱导这些血管病变中的作用已被提出。目的比较CA患者和非CA患者的HH频率。本病例对照研究由160名患者组成，包括80名CA患者和80名非CA患者。收集所有参与者的性别、年龄、避孕药摄入史、妊娠次数、BMI、CA病变次数和肝脏超声检查结果。结果CA患者HH检出率明显高于对照组（P＜0.001），但CA数与HH数之间无显著相关性（P＝0.837）。HH患者口服避孕药的发生率明显高于正常对照组，但CA患者口服避孕药发生率并不明显高于正常组。结论CA患者HH发生率明显增高，CA可能是HH的皮肤标志物。
