  • Title: Congenital plaque-type glomuvenous malformation associated with chylous ascites.
    Author: Tejedor M, Martín-Santiago A, Gómez C, Fiol M, Benítez-Segura I.
    Journal: Pediatr Dermatol; 2010; 27(6):673-5. PubMed ID: 21510024.
    Abstract:
    Congenital plaque-type glomuvenous malformation (GVM) is caused by loss of function mutations in glomulin gene. We report a newborn with this rare vascular disorder associated with chylous ascites. The common mesenchymal origin of GVM and lymphatic vessels as well as the glomulin expression in vascular smooth muscle cells in utero could help explain this unusual prenatal complication of glomuvenous malformations.
