Angiocentric glioma
Angiocentric glioma is a rare WHO grade 1 pediatric-type diffuse low-grade glioma of cortex or brainstem causing refractory seizures, defined by MYB::QKI fusion and cured by resection.
Angiodysplasia of colon
Angiodysplasia of the colon (colonic angioectasia, vascular ectasia): degenerative right-colon vascular malformation causing lower GI bleeding and anemia, mainly over age 60; diagnosed by colonoscopy, treated with argon plasma coagulation.
Angiodysplasia of stomach
Angiodysplasia of stomach (ICD-11 DA43.1, 胃の血管拡張症) is a mucosal vascular malformation of the stomach causing GI bleeding and anemia, treated mainly by argon plasma coagulation and linked to aortic stenosis in Heyde syndrome.
Angioedema
Angioedema is transient non-pitting swelling of skin or mucosa, mediated by histamine or bradykinin. Key forms are hereditary angioedema (C1-INH deficiency, 1:50,000), acquired C1-INH deficiency, and ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema; mediator determines treatment.
Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is new blood-vessel formation by sprouting or splitting of existing vessels, driven by hypoxia-HIF-VEGF signaling; it underlies development, exercise adaptation, tumors, and wet AMD, and is targeted by anti-VEGF drugs such as bevacizumab and ranibizumab.
Angiogenin
Angiogenin, also called ribonuclease 5, is a 123-amino-acid human protein that stimulates new blood vessel formation; isolated in 1985, its mutations are linked to ALS progression.
Angiography
Angiography, also called angiogram or catheter angiography, is x-ray imaging of blood vessels after contrast dye injection. Key facts: first angiogram 1896 (Haschek and Lindenthal), Seldinger technique 1953, iodine contrast, CTA and MRA alternatives.
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), or nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma, angioimmunoblastic type, is an aggressive T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma of TFH-cell origin with TET2, RHOA G17V, IDH2, and DNMT3A mutations, immune dysregulation, and poor prognosis.
Angiokeratoma
Angiokeratoma, including Fordyce, Mibelli, circumscriptum, and corporis diffusum types, is a benign dilated capillary lesion of the superficial dermis; the diffuse form marks Fabry disease.
Angiokeratoma circumscriptum
Angiokeratoma circumscriptum (AKC, angiokeratoma circumscriptum neviforme) is the rarest angiokeratoma variant, a congenital capillary-lymphatic malformation of the papillary dermis forming dark hyperkeratotic plaques, usually unilaterally on the lower limbs, first described by Fabry in 1915.
Angiokeratoma of Mibelli
Angiokeratoma of Mibelli (Mibelli's angiokeratoma) is a rare benign vascular skin disease: multiple 3–5 mm warty dark-red papules on fingers and toes, appearing in girls aged 10–15, treated with pulsed dye laser.
Angiology
Angiology is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal of vascular diseases founded in 1950, published by SAGE, official organ of the American College of Angiology and International College of Angiology, indexed in MEDLINE since 1965.
Angioma serpiginosum
Angioma serpiginosum, also called Hutchinson angioma serpiginosum, is a rare benign vascular nevus of dilated papillary dermal capillaries, affecting females about 9:1, diagnosed by dermoscopic red lagoons, treated with pulsed dye laser.
Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma
Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma is a rare soft tissue tumor of intermediate biologic potential, arising as a slow-growing, painless nodule on the extremities of children and young adults.
Angiomyolipoma
Angiomyolipoma (AML) is a benign renal PEComa tumour of fat, smooth muscle, and dysmorphic vessels; 0.44% prevalence, 80% sporadic, managed by surveillance, embolization, or nephron-sparing surgery.
Angioplasty
Angioplasty, also called balloon angioplasty, PTCA, or PCI, is a catheter procedure that inflates a balloon to widen plaque-narrowed arteries, usually with a stent. First performed by Andreas Grüntzig in Zürich in 1977; used for angina and heart attacks.
Angioplasty, Balloon, Laser-Assisted
Laser-assisted balloon angioplasty (MeSH D017222, laser balloon angioplasty, PTLA) combines laser energy with balloon catheters to recanalize arteries; randomized trials found no benefit over balloon angioplasty alone, and only excimer lasers remain in use.
Angiosarcoma
Angiosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of blood and lymph vessel endothelial cells, about 1-2% of sarcomas, most common over age 70, often skin, breast, liver, or spleen; risk factors include lymphedema (Stewart-Treves syndrome) and prior radiation.
Angiosarcoma of breast
Angiosarcoma of the breast (ICD-11 2B56.2) is a rare endothelial malignancy occurring as primary disease in women 30-50 or as secondary radiation-associated disease about 5-10 years after breast radiotherapy, with poor prognosis.
Angiosarcoma of heart
Primary cardiac angiosarcoma (PCAS) is a rare, aggressive malignant tumor of the heart's blood vessel endothelium, mostly in the right atrium, with median survival about 7 months and treatment centered on surgery plus chemo-radiotherapy.
Angiosarcoma of liver
