ABSTRACT
Tufted angioma is a rare, slow-growing, benign, vascular tumor that usually occurs in children. It appeared as an erythematous to red-brown, indurated papule on the trunk or neck. Histopathologic examination shows multiple capillary lobules in a cannon ball appearance scattered throughout the dermis. We present here a 32-year-old woman with multiple annular lesions on her right thigh, which started as red papules and they progressed with annular extension and central regression for 3 years. The histopathologic findings were compatible with tufted angioma. The lesions were treated with 3 sessions of sclerotherapy. We report here on an unusual tufted angioma that occurred as multiple lesions which showed annular extension with central regression.
