Acquired Tufted Angioma (A Case of Acquired Tufted Angioma)

Abstract

Acquired tufted angioma is a benign, slowly progressive angioma with a characteristic histologic pattern, that was first described by Wilson Jones in 1979. We present herein a case of this rare disease developed in a 43 year old healthy woman. Routine biopsy specimens and an immunoenzymatic staining of factor 7IE showed compatible findings with those cases reported previously. The lesions were surgically excised, and during the two months of follow up, there was no sign of recurrence.
