    Summary

    This study presents two cases of vascular malformations, a facial lesion in a father and a tongue lesion in his son. Genetic factors are questioned due to a family history, highlighting the importance of expression and penetrance in inheritance.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Genetics
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Haemangiomas and vascular malformations are distinct vascular anomalies.
    • Understanding their etiology and inheritance patterns is crucial for diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of vascular malformation are presented: a 40-year-old father with a facial lesion and his 15-year-old son with a tongue lesion.
    • The son's tongue lesion appears to be decreasing in size over time.
    • A history of surgically removed vascular malformation in the father's sister suggests a potential genetic link.

    Findings:

    • The familial occurrence of vascular malformations raises questions about a genetically determined inheritance pattern, excluding Y-linked transmission.
    • The observed differences in lesion presentation and potential regression require further investigation into genetic expression and penetrance.

    Implications:

    • This case series underscores the need to consider genetic factors in the inheritance of vascular malformations.
    • Further research into the genetic basis, expression, and penetrance of these anomalies is warranted.
    • Accurate diagnosis and genetic counseling are essential for affected families.
