Decoding targetoid vascular tumor

A 25-year-old woman had a brownish, raised lesion on her thigh that had been there for 6 months without any symptoms.A solitary brownish papule, measuring 0.4 cm 0.3 cm, was found over the right lateral part of the mid-thigh upon cutaneous examination [Figure 1a].e patient showed a picture she had taken with her phone during cross-examination.A well-to-ill-defined targetoid lesion of size 2.5 cm 2 cm, a central papule with a reddish halo, was seen over the thigh in the photograph [Figure 1b].Dermatofibroma, mastocytoma, and hemangioma were retained as differentials and sent for histopathological examination. [1]e histology report showed the periappendageal dilated vascular regions and thin walled vessels lined with a single layer of cells with noticeable hobnail nuclei [Figure 2a andb].us, the final diagnosis of hobnail hemangioma was made.

Abstract

A 25-year-old woman had a brownish, raised lesion on her thigh that had been there for 6 months without any symptoms.A solitary brownish papule, measuring 0.4 cm 0.3 cm, was found over the right lateral part of the mid-thigh upon cutaneous examination [Figure 1a].e patient showed a picture she had taken with her phone during cross-examination.A well-to-ill-defined targetoid lesion of size 2.5 cm 2 cm, a central papule with a reddish halo, was seen over the thigh in the photograph [Figure 1b].Dermatofibroma, mastocytoma, and hemangioma were retained as differentials and sent for histopathological examination. [1]e histology report showed the periappendageal dilated vascular regions and thin walled vessels lined with a single layer of cells with noticeable hobnail nuclei [Figure 2a andb].us, the final diagnosis of hobnail hemangioma was made.
