Unilateral Dermatomal Superficial Telangiectasia

Abstract

A three-year-old boy with unilateral dermatomal superficial telangiectasia (UDST) is the first reported case with skin lesions in two non-adjacent areas (dermatomal areas of Trigeminal2 and L4-5). In this case, onset occurred at an early age, the onset was eight months after an operation, and the liver function was normal; therefore we believe it is congenital, even though the patient had undergone an extensive right hepatectomy to remove a hamartoma in his liver at the age of four months.
