Abstract:
We experienced a case of venous hemangioma occuring on the inner aspect of right forearm of 40-year-old woman. The skin lesion was slight tender, pea sized, dark brown surfaced, subcutaneous mass. The entire dermis was filled with numerous coiled thick walled vessels surrounded by fibrous stroma on the histopathologic examination. The wall, lined by a single layer of endothelial cells, lacked elastic fibers on the specimen of Verhoeff-Van Gieson and Massons trichrotne stains.
