A Case of Acquired Tufted Angioma

Abstract

Acquired tufted angioma is a benign, progressive vascular lesion that has a distinctive histopathologic appearance. We report a 31-year-old man with acquireed tufted angioma. Several reddish papules and plaque were present on the neck. The lesion had been present for 6 months. They had enlarged slowly, and were slightly tender. Histopathologic examination of the biopsy specimen showed round to ovoid cellular tufts of capillaries, most prominent in the middle to lower dermis.
