BACKGROUND: Publications concerning perineal infantile hemangiomas are scarce, and comprise no large series. OBJECTIVE: Studying clinical features of hemangiomas of the perineal area, complications and associated malformations. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of all hemangiomas localized in the perineal area, encountered at the Children's Hospital in Bordeaux from 1994. RESULTS: Of 49 perineal hemangiomas (34 girls, 15 boys), 5 patients had accompanying malformation, mainly lipomyelomeningocele with tethered cord. The superficial hemangiomas were more represented in males and presented sooner than the nodular counterpart. The average rate of ulceration was 73%, ulcerations developed earlier in the superficial forms than their nodular counterparts (2 vs. 4 months). CONCLUSION: Superficial perineal hemangiomas are more often complicated by ulceration, and are associated with developmental anomalies. As a counterpart for the PHACE syndrome in facial hemangioma, we propose the acronym SACRAL for perineal hemangiomas: Spinal dysraphism, Anogenital anomalies, Cutaneous anomalies, Renal and urologic anomalies, associated with Angioma of Lumbosacral localization.
Imaging of the rectum, anorectal junction and surrounding tissues is both difficult and technically challenging. CT and conventional barium studies offer limited information in local staging of rectal and perirectal neoplasms, anal carcinomas and extension perianal fistulas in patients with inflamamatory bowel disease, or in evaluating patients with fecal incontinence. During past decade, sonography and MR imaging have resulted in significant improvement in the imaging of rectal and perirectal and anal and perianal disease. The aim of this article is to review possibility of the EAUS in the evaluation both normal anal anatomy and anorectal disease and disorders (anal carcinoma, sphincter defects, anal fistulas, perianal abscesses and other pathological conditions).
