“The patient's medical condition was diagnosed as bronchiectasis, an ectasis that affects the bronchial tubes causing abnormal dilation and impaired lung function.”

“An association between connective tissue diseases, particularly systemic sclerosis, and gastric antral vascular ectasia has been noted.”

“This ectasia may be associated with reflux by an internai pudendal tributary, communicating with a uterine vein.”

“Therapies indicated for the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, post-traumatic edema, capillary ectasia, cellulitis.”

“Endoscopic coagulation with heater probe, gold probe or argon plasma coagulator obliterates the vascular ectasias and reduces the degree of blood loss.”

“Venous ectasias in the neck are uncommon, primarily occurring in the internal and external jugular veins.”

“Venous ectasias of the retromandibular vein are rare lesions that can mimic a parotid mass on imaging.”
