Case Number : Case 1939 - 03 Nov - Dr Richard Carr Posted By: Guest

Co-existent capillary haemangioma and Sutton's naevus

Cherry angioma, traumatized and inflamed

Agree with benign angioma, cherry angioma did cross my mind

What about a long standing lesion of Angiomatoid Kaposi's Sarcoma?

I reported this as a benign (haemosiderotic) haemangioma. It's a little inflamed and there were some spindle areas but the clinical is strongly against KS and also it lacks plasma cells.

Yes Richard! I was wrong! This can't be a KS. It lacks the cpc for a KS and lacks other typical morphological findings...I was completely off road!

Hi Richard - would you consider a spindle cell haemangioma like component - especially looking at Fig. 8? You can get cavernous like areas in these lesions as well ?? Iskander 

My first thought was Spindle cell hemangioma as well.

Thanks Iskander.

Yes indeed it does - I photographed that area specifically. I guess it's a type of reactive change.
