“…Further, the ex tent of the lesions too, was unusual. The uni lateral occurrence of angiokeratoma has been well documented [2,4,5], and extensive le sions, covering even one quarter of the body have been reported [7]. Varicose veins were present in both the legs, and the size of the lower limbs was normal in the present case.…”

“…The papular angioker atoma [19], unique or multiple, maintains its telangiectatic character, and only the circumscript type [19][20][21][22] may show an under lying capillary or cavernous hemangioma, but must be excluded because of its typical clinical appearance.…”

“…In their study of verrucous hemangioma, Imperial and Helwig [2] indicate that the epidermic changes may be secondary to in juries or physiological alterations, and also deny with Dammerl [22] the possibility of associated epidermal nevus. They examined other hemangiomas with papillomatous sur faces concluding that in these cases there is no epidermic hyperplasia.…”

We present a case of an 8-year-old girl, who has, since birth, developed multiple angiomatous lesions of the skin. The evolution has been progressive and eruptive, with the lesions, beginning as reddish papulae, acquiring later a verrucous appearance. The case has revealed no associated systemic symptoms nor relevant family history of any interest. The clinical picture suggests multiple hemangiomatosis. The histopathology seems to relate this disorder to verrucous hemangioma, and therefore needs to be differentiated from angiokeratotic nevi. To our knowledge, reports of a similar clinicopathological picture are not mentioned in the literature.

“…[1112] However, truncal as well as several very extensive lesions covering as much as one-quarter of the body have also been reported. [13] It is commonly characterized by reddish papules and nodules, which over time coalesce to form hyperkeratotic verrucous plaques in a zosteriform distribution. [4510] The development of hyperkeratosis may be associated with an expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in the lesion.…”

“…[14] The coexistence of AKC with Klippel–Trenaunay syndrome has been evident in several cases. [1315] Other associations of AKC include Cobb syndrome, nevus flammeus, cavernous hemagioma, and traumatic AV fistula. [16]…”

Angiokeratoma circumscriptum in a young male

et al. 2014

A 20-year-old male presented with multiple eruptions on his right leg since birth; these bled and were painful on trivial trauma. Examination revealed dark brown, hyperkeratotic, indurated, verrucous linear plaques with irregular borders. Histopathological evidence of hyperkeratosis, acanthosis, and extensive vascular proliferation in papillary dermis confirmed clinical suspicion of angiokeratoma circumscriptum (AKC). Excision and skin grafting yielded a cosmetically favorable outcome. Angiokeratomas, first described by Mibeli in 1889, are a group of vascular ectasias involving the papillary dermis. Angiokeratomas are more common in males; however, AKC–the rarest of its five variants–exhibits a female preponderance (F:M:3:1). AKC is an extremely rare nevoid disorder, only 100 of its cases having been reported in the world literature until 2006. Herein, we have reported a typical case of AKC in a young male that was previously misdiagnosed, and the patient wrongly counseled about the likelihood of its spontaneous regression.
