[2]: 596 Tufted angioma is defined as a single tumor in the skin of the neck, upper trunk, or extremities that appears erythematous, macula, or plaque-like.
[5] Although tufted angioma can be acquired or congenital, the lesion often manifests within the first year of life in about 50% of cases.
[6] Although its pathophysiology is unknown, its angiogenesis, which permits the formation of capillary lobes, is facilitated by an increase in endothelial and vascular growth factors.
[6] Imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance or ultrasound can be used to evaluate the affected area, distinguish one tumor from another, or both.
Moreover, other writers have previously employed additional techniques such as cryotherapy, laser, compression treatment, surgery, interferon, topical or systemic corticosteroids, and chemotherapy.
