“…The term VH was first coined by Halter 3 in 1937 to report a 16‐year‐old boy presenting with a linear, purpuric cluster of plaques extending from the right buttock to the toes and associated with shortening and atrophy of the affected limb. Several studies have described similar lesions using various names, including angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme, 4 angiokeratoma circumscriptum, 5,6 angiokeratoma corporis naeviforme, 7 and keratotic hemangioma 8 . Thus VH has frequently been mistakenly classified as a variety of angiokeratoma.…”

Angiokeratoma circumscriptum is one of five types in the group of the angiokeratomas. These lesions are usually present at birth and are not related with systemic diseases. Angiokeratoma circumscriptums are hyperkeratotic papules or nodules occurring frequently unilaterally on the leg. These lesions are very rare and very few cases have been reported since its first description. It is of particular clinical importance because of its morphologic similarities to malignant skin tumors such as malignant melanoma or pigmented basal cell carcinoma. Therefore, this rare but significant lesion must be recognized by physician and surgeons who manage skin tumors.

“…Angiokeratoma, a provisionally unclassified vascular anomaly in the ISSVA classification, 5 is characterized by aggregates of hyperkeratotic erythematous papules and nodules that may coalesce to form verrucous plaques. 55 Therapeutic options for angiokeratoma include carbon dioxide laser, Nd:YAG laser, electrocoagulation, cryotherapy, or excision. 56 Laser therapy may be suitable for multiple lesions, but in cases with recurrent bleeding from angiokeratoma, electrocoagulation using electrocautery with a fine-tipped needle can be effective for stopping bleeding from underlying vascular lesions that heal with minimal scarring (Fig.…”
