Fibro-adipose vascular anomaly (FAVA): three case reports with an emphasis on the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway

Abstract Background Fibro-adipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) is a new entity of vascular anomalies with somatic and mosaic gain-of-function mutations of the phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA). PIK3CA mutation excessively activates mammalian target of rapamy...
