Unilateral nevoid telangiectasia is a rare but clinica.lly distinct dermatosis first deacribed by Zeisler in 1922. It had been also called as linear telangiectasia or unilateral telangiectasia. Wilkin suggested the term unilateral dermatomal superficial telangiectasia, in 1977. There are some reports of congenital unilateral nevoid telangiectasia but it usually occurs in women during the puberty and the third decade. Clinically it is characterized by superficial telangiectatic lesions distributed along the dermatomes uniIaterally and usually on the upper part of the body. It was reported that unilateral nevoid telangiectasia was related with elevated serum estrogen level in the many cases. We present two patients, 23-year and 25-year-old male soldiers, whose leaions were consistent with unilateral nevoid telangiectasia elinically and histopathologically.

Verrucous hemangioma is a variant of a capillary, cavernous, or mixed hemangioma which undergoes a reactive proliferative epidermal change. Most verrucous hemangiomas appear on the lower extremities, and most are present at birth or appear during childhood. We observed two patients who showed typical clinical and histopathological findings of verrucous hemangioma. Treatment was done by wide surgical excision and skin graft. The first rnale patient had a good therapeutic result but the second female patient had a recurrence at one month post-operative.
