Cherry angiomas are a common cutaneous vascular proliferation which manifests as single or multiple spots and occurs predominantly on the upper trunk and arms. They typically appear as round-to-oval, bright, red, dome-shaped papules and pinpoint macules measuring up to several millimeters in diameter. The histopathologic findings of a cherry angioma are consistent with a true capillary hemangioma, which is formed by numerous, newly developed capillaries with narrow lumens and prominent endothelial cells arranged in a lobular fashion in the papillary dermis. Herein, we report a case of multiple cherry angiomas on the scalp, an uncommon location for cherry angiomas.
樱桃状血管瘤是一种常见的皮肤血管增生,表现为单个或多个斑点,主要发生在上躯干和手臂。它们通常表现为圆形至椭圆形、明亮的红色、圆顶状丘疹和直径达数毫米的点状斑疹。樱桃状血管瘤的组织病理学表现与真正的毛细血管瘤一致,后者由许多新形成的毛细血管组成,管腔狭窄,内皮细胞突出,以小叶状排列于乳头层真皮内。在此,我们报告一例头皮多发樱桃状血管瘤病例,樱桃状血管瘤出现在头皮这一不常见部位。
