title: [Haemangiomas. Review and case reports].
abstract: After reviewing the literature on haemangioma and vascular malformation, two cases of the latter condition are presented. A 40-year-old father shows a facial lesion and his 15-year-old son one of the tongue, the latter seemingly decreasing in size over the years. Because a vascular malformation, surgically removed, was present in the neck of the father's sister, a genetically (not Y-linked) determined coincidence is questioned. In studying its inheritance, the expression and penetrance of the anomaly has to be taken into consideration.
