Angioma serpiginosum (AS) is a rare benign vascular lesion that typically arises in early childhood, with a prevalence in female, and then grow up over a period of months/years. It is characterized by small asymptomatic purple-red dots that cluster together and they do not disappear on diascopy. It is mainly localized on the arms but some cases on face and neck have been reported. The etiology of AS is unknown, dermoscopy may aid in the diagnosis but usually the biopsy is necessary. We report 2 cases: one male and one female with angioma serpiginosum, aged 13 and 8 years old.
匐行性血管瘤(AS)是一种罕见的良性血管病变,通常在儿童早期出现,女性患病率较高,然后在数月/数年的时间里逐渐增大。其特征为无症状的小紫红色斑点聚集在一起,玻片压诊时不消失。主要局限于手臂,但也有报道称有些病例出现在面部和颈部。AS的病因尚不清楚,皮肤镜检查可能有助于诊断,但通常需要进行活检。我们报告2例病例:1例13岁男性和1例8岁女性患有匐行性血管瘤。
