Hemangioma of the lunate (Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome). Case report.
An intraosseous hemangioma of the lunate was diagnosed as the cause of wrist complaints. At angiography considerable arteriovenous shunting within the bone was shown. Replacement of the lunate by a SILASTIC implant relieved the pain. The intraosseous hemangioma, however, appeared to be only a part of more wide-spread disease which fulfilled the criteria for a Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome.
