Skin’s “blood puzzle”: evolution from vascular to skin cancer


Angioplasm is a benign tumour from an vascular origin, usually expressed in red or purple spots or swelling. They can occur in any part of the skin or affect internal organs. Although vascular tumours are mostly harmless, in some cases they may become abnormal or even develop into malignant tumours. The mechanism for the occurrence of angioma, clinical performance and their relationship to skin cancer are discussed here.The basic concept and type of angioma is a benign tumour of abnormally increased vascular cells. Common vascular tumor types include:• Cream vascular tumours: usually expressed in red or purple spots, with clear borders and a soft, nuanced, usually pain-free border;• Sponge-type aneurysm: expressed as a large swollen mass, purple or blue, with a possible uneven surface;• An arterial malformation: it is rare, usually in the form of dark purple, and easily causes haemorrhage.The clinical manifestations of vascular tumours, most of which begin at birth, especially in infancy, tend to diminish or disappear with age. However, in some adults, vascular tumours may cause haemorrhage, infection, etc. due to trauma or other causes. They may not be easily detected for vascular tumours, such as internal vascular tumours, but may gradually trigger the oppression or functional impairment of the surrounding tissue.The relationship between angioma and skin cancer, although generally benign, may cause some risk of skin cancer. Anomalous vascular growth of vascular tumours can lead to local oxygen deficiency, which provides soil for the growth of cancer cells. Especially when vascular tumours are located in areas with strong sunlight exposure, mutations of local skin cells can be triggered, increasing the likelihood of skin cancer.In addition, certain types of angioma may be accompanied by other genetic diseases, which themselves increase the risk of skin cancer. For example, genetic vascular tumours are associated with the occurrence of some skin cancers, so that patients with vascular tumours should undergo regular skin examinations to detect potential malignant tumours at an early stage.The treatment and management of angioma is usually determined by its size, location and impact on health. Common treatment methods include:Laser treatment: applies to shallow vascular tumours, reducing tumour size by constricting the vascular through laser technology;:: Refrigeration treatment: the death of the tumor tissue through liquid nitrogen refrigeration;• Surgery: for larger or deeper aneurysms, surgery may be required;• Drug treatment: In some exceptional cases, drugs are used to control the growth of angioma.Although most aneurysms are benign, they should be treated in a timely manner and reviewed on a regular basis if there are signs of malformation. Angioma is a common benign tumour, caused mainly by anomalous vascular growth, usually detected at birth or early childhood. Most aneurysms do not have serious health impacts, but they can cause aesthetic problems or, in some cases, complications, such as skin ulcer, infection or haemorrhage. Close observation and timely intervention of angioma are therefore essential.Regular follow-up visits help to identify any potential problems at an early stage and take timely steps to intervene. Therefore, good communication with medical professionals and regular examination and treatment in accordance with their advice are key to managing vascular cancers and ensuring long-term health.
