Abstract: High-frequency ultrasonography (HFUS) represents a useful adjunct for dermatologists in the diagnosis of capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation (CM-AVM) syndrome. We present a paediatric case series of 6 patients with confirmed RASA1 gene mutation in whom HFUS demonstrated AVM beneath cutaneous CM-like lesions greater than 1.5 cm.<br /> (© 2020 The Australasian College of Dermatologists.)
