Blue rubber-bleb nevus syndrome

Abstract

A 22-year-old man with blue rubber-bleb nevus syndrome is reported on. This is a rare syndrome. This patient is of particular interest because he had a combination of rare features: (1) five ileo-ileal intussusceptions each with a hemangioma acting as the lead point, were present during operation; (2) there was an angiomatous lesion of the glans penis; (3) this is the first case reported in a Chinese person. An aggressive surgical approach was used with success. Preoperative and perioperative investigations, including operative colonoscopy, were used to localize the gastrointestinal hemangiomas.
