Multiple Vascular Anomalies: Report of a Case

A patient with multiple congenital vascular anomalies is described. The lesions are a nevus flammeus on the face, a nevus anemicus on the trunk, and asymmetric reticulated mottling of a lower extremity that had undergone spontaneous ulceration. The characteristics of these lesions are reviewed and the difficulty of differential diagnosis of the reticulated lesion is discussed. The ulcerations healed after administration of reserpine intraarterially followed by oral administration of phenoxybenzamine hydrochloride.
