Abstract:
We experienced a case of cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita in a 2-year-old girl. The patient had reddish to violet reticulated patches with telangiectasia on the left leg and left side of trunk since birth. The circumference of the affected leg was decreased. No other associated anomalies were found on physical and X-ray examinations. The skin biopsy revealed dilatation and proliferation of capillaries with mild perivascular inflammatory cell infiltration in all layers of the dermis and subcutaneous fat.
