Özet
Results of fifteen-year follow-up from a single center: findings and risks for tumor development in isolated hemihyperplasia cases: Isolated hemihyperplasia is abnormal asymmetric growth of one or more parts of the body without any underlying disease. The risk for the development of embryonal tumor is increased in the subjects with isolated hemihyperplasia. The study presented here retrospectively evaluated the clinical data and the risk for tumor development in the cases with isolated hemihyperplasia. 24 cases with isolated hemihyperplasia were retrospectively evaluated. An extremity segment has been involved in 16.7%, an extremity has been entirely involved in 37.5%, more than one extremity have been involved on the same side in 16.7%, and definitely half of the body including the face has been involved in 25% of the patients, whereas one side of the face has been involved in only one case. Wilms tumor in the left abdomen (4.2%) was developed in one case. Isolated hemihyperplasia is a rare clinical picture that enhances the risk for the development of embryonal tumors.
