The case of a newborn with multifocal congenital hemangiomas with an activating pathogenic variant of PIK3CA is presented. This report highlights the difficulty in diagnosing multifocal vascular lesions in newborns. Additionally, this case emphasizes the importance of clinical, histologic, radiographic, and genomic correlation to the best categorize rare vascular lesions and to guide treatment.

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway01:22

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway

The mammalian target of rapamycin  (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates growth, proliferation, and cell survival in response to hormones, growth factors, or nutrient availability. This kinase exists in two structurally and functionally distinct forms: mTOR complex 1  (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2  (mTORC2). The first form (mTORC1) is composed of a rapamycin-sensitive Raptor and proline-rich Akt substrate, PRAS40. In contrast,  mTORC2 consists of a...
