| Popis: | Background. Diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis (DNH) is a rare disorder first recognized at birth or during the neonatal period. DNH is characterized by numerous cutaneous and visceral hemangiomas involving three or more organ systems. Materials and methods. Although the skin and liver are most frequently affected, we present a case of DNH demonstrating an unusual predilection for the central nervous system (CNS). Results and conclusion. We report the imaging findings in a patient with this disorder, paying particular attention to the features seen on cranial sonography and spinal MR imaging. |
