Verrucous hemangioma

Pediatr Dermatol. 1985 Mar;2(3):191-3. doi: 10.1111/j.1525-1470.1985.tb01050.x.

Abstract

Two patients with verrucous hemangioma, a congenital vascular malformation, were seen. The typical lesion is a unilateral group of hyperkeratotic papules and nodules on a lower extremity. Unlike the more common capillary or cavernous hemangiomas, verrucous hemangiomas tend to enlarge and spread with time, and to recur after excision.
