We describe a case of venous malformation of pyriform sinus in 63 year-old patient, discovered incidentally. Venous malformation are the most common vascular malformations to arise in the head and neck. However venous malformation of the hypopharynx in the adult papulation are rare. The author performed successfully ethanol sclerotherapy for venous malformation of pyriform sinus, so we present the case with a review of the related literatures.

Venous malformations arising from the peripheral nerve are a rare type of vascular malformation. We present the first case of an intraneural venous malformation of the median nerve to be reported in a child and review the previous two cases of median nerve compression due to a venous malformation that have been reported. These cases presented with painless masses in the volar aspect of the wrist or with symptoms suggestive of carpal tunnel syndrome. Clinical suspicion should lead to the use of Doppler ultrasonography as the first-line diagnostic tool. Magnetic resonance imaging and histopathology can confirm the diagnosis, as phleboliths are pathognomonic of venous malformations. Surgical treatment appears to be the only modality capable of successfully controlling the growth of an intraneural malformation. Sclerotherapy and radiotherapy have never been used to treat this type of malformation.

Venous malformation with phleboliths is uncommon cause of unilateral parotid swelling. The clinical and radiographic appearance of venous malformation with phleboliths may masquerade as sialolithiasis. A 49-year-old female complained about unilateral parotid swelling for 6 years. Preoperative evaluation including computed tomography and sonography showed the suspicion of venous malformation with phleboliths. Superficial parotidectomy was performed. Pathological examination confirmed that the mass was venous malformation with phleboliths combined with sialolith in the parotid gland. We present the case of unilateral parotid swelling caused by a venous malformation combined with sialolithiasis.

We describe a case of laryngeal venous malformation in 43 year-old patient, discovered incidentally. Laryngeal venous malformation is a comparatively rare condition in adults. It presents as a dark bluish mass that may cause bleeding, hoarseness or stridor, but he complained only mild throat discomfort. We found dark-bluish tumor on the right arytenoid area, and treated the lesion by Ethanol sclerotherapy. All lesions disappeared after one month without any complication. Sclerotherapy with Ethanol can be an easy and effective treatment for laryngeal venous malformations, so we present the case with a review of the related literatures.

Adrenal venous malformation is an uncommon disease. We report a case of an incidentally diagnosed adrenal cystic mass during an evaluation for gastritis in a child. A 14-year-old girl admitted to our pediatric department for epigastric pain. After the gastroscopy, she was diagnosed with hemorrhagic gastritis. A 5.5 cm-sized cystic mass was incidentally found adjacent to her left adrenal gland during an ultrasound examination for evaluating her abdominal symptoms. She underwent laparoscopic surgery for the diagnosis and treatment of this cystic mass, which was confirmed to be venous malformation at pathologic diagnosis.

The pain around the posterior knee, called 'popliteal fossa', has been known to be caused by a variety of disease entities. Venous malformation is a very rare cause of popliteal area pain, and its diagnosis is frequently delayed, missed, or given incorrectly. Here, we report a case of a patient with popliteal fossa pain for 2 years and was diagnosed as intramuscular venous malformation using ultrasound.
