Angiokeratomas are relatively rare vascular lesions characterized by ectasias of the papillary dermal blood vessels with secondary epidermal changes in the form of acanthosis and/or hyperkeratosis. Amongst the several variants of angiokeratomas, angiokeratoma circumscriptum is the least common one. Angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme (ACN) is a still rarer type of angiokeratoma, which is typically seen at birth. We report here a case of linear, unilateral, verrucous plaques on the leg of a young man, diagnosed as ACN.
血管角化瘤是相对罕见的血管性病变，其特征为乳头层真皮血管扩张，并伴有棘层增厚和/或角化过度形式的继发性表皮改变。在血管角化瘤的几种变体中，局限性血管角化瘤是最不常见的一种。痣样局限性血管角化瘤（ACN）是血管角化瘤中更为罕见的一种类型，通常在出生时即可见到。我们在此报告一例年轻男性腿部出现的线状、单侧、疣状斑块病例，诊断为ACN。
