\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Blood vessel structure (body structure)

A rare congenital haemangioma characterised by a superficial, red to violaceous lesion with overlying telangiectasia and a surrounding pale halo, which initially behaves like a rapidly involuting congenital haemangioma, beginning to involute shortly after birth. Involution is then aborted, and a residual tumour virtually indistinguishable from non-involuting congenital haemangioma remains. This lesion grows proportionally with the child and does not regress.

Syndrome with characteristics of co-occurrence of both juvenile polyposis syndrome and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. Juvenile polyposis syndrome has characteristics of hamartomatous polyps occurring throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is characterized by vascular dysplasia with telangiectases of the skin, oral and nasal mucosa and arteriovenous malformation of the lungs, liver, brain and gastrointestinal tract. The syndrome is caused by heterozygous mutation in the SMAD4 gene on chromosome 18q21.	Finding site	True	Blood vessel structure (body structure)	Inferred relationship	Some	1
