“…AVLs (also named atypical vascular proliferations, benign lymphangiomatous papules, lymphangioma circumscriptum , benign lymphangioendotheliomas, acquired progressive lymphangiomas, and acquired lymphangiectasis) have been classically included in the differential diagnosis of RIAS. They are histologically characterized by focal proliferation of dilated vascular channels lined by a single layer of endothelial cells in the dermis, and they can be distinguished from AS by the presence of circumscription, dermal location, associated chronic inflammation, projection of stroma into the lumen, the lack of malignant aspects (atypia, mitoses, papillary endothelial hyperplasia), and the absence of myc amplification . The etiology of the AVL is poorly understood, with some authors considering it a benign lesion and others a precursor lesion to AS …”
