Linear angioma serpiginosum, a rare vascular malformation, presented along an adolescent boy's upper extremity. Histopathology confirmed numerous thick-walled capillaries in the dermal papillae, characteristic of this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Vascular Malformations
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Angioma serpiginosum is a rare, benign vascular malformation.
  • Typically presents as small, red papules that coalesce.
  • Often affects women, commonly on the lower extremities.

Observation:

  • A case of angioma serpiginosum in an adolescent male is described.
  • The vascular malformation exhibited a distinct linear distribution.
  • Lesions were located along the upper extremity.

Findings:

  • Histopathologic examination revealed numerous small, thick-walled capillaries.
  • These capillaries were concentrated within the dermal papillae.
  • This finding is characteristic of angioma serpiginosum.

Implications:

  • This case expands the known clinical presentations of angioma serpiginosum.
  • Highlights the importance of histopathological correlation in diagnosing vascular lesions.
  • Contributes to the understanding of rare dermatological conditions in adolescents.
