Partially involuting congenital hemangioma

ORPHA:458785Disease

Also called Partially involuting congenital haemangioma

What it is

A rare congenital hemangioma characterized by a superficial, red to violaceous lesion with overlying telangiectasia and a surrounding pale halo, which initially behaves like a rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma, beginning to involute shortly after birth. Involution is then aborted, and a residual tumor virtually indistinguishable from non-involuting congenital hemangioma remains. This lesion grows proportionally with the child and does not regress.
