Acquired elastotic hemangioma: A diagnosis to keep in mind

Journal Title: Nasza Dermatologia Online - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 4

Abstract

Acquired elastotic hemangioma is a relatively newly described cutaneous lesion that presents a characteristic clinicopathologic feature and which should be distinguished from other cutaneous vascular proliferations. Only 10 cases have been reported in literature. We herein describe another case of acquired elastotic hemangioma occurring in the cheek of a 64 year old woman.
