Congenital Limb Overgrowth Syndromes Associated with Vascular Anomalies.
Congenital limb length discrepancy disorders are frequently associated with a variety of vascular anomalies and have unique genetic and phenotypic features. Many of these syndromes have been linked to sporadic somatic mosaicism involving mutations of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, which has an important role in tissue growth and angiogenesis. Radiologists who are aware of congenital limb length discrepancies can make specific diagnoses based on imaging findings. Although genetic confirmation is necessary for a definitive diagnosis, the radiologist serves as a central figure in the identification and treatment of these disorders. The clinical presentations, diagnostic and imaging workups, and treatment options available for patients with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome, CLOVES (congenital lipomatous overgrowth, vascular anomalies, epidermal nevi, and scoliosis/spinal deformities) syndrome, fibroadipose vascular anomaly, phosphatase and tensin homolog mutation spectrum, Parkes-Weber syndrome, and Proteus syndrome are reviewed. © RSNA, 2019.
