Comments

This 3-year-old girl was thought to have a rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma. However, after some apparent regression following ulceration of the center of the lesion in early infancy, it changed little over the ensuing 2.5 years. Sclerotherapy and surgical resection was planned.

Description

10 cm soft partially compressible subcutaneous mass with central overlying scar and telangiectasias at the border
