[Viscerocutaneous hemangiomatosis--the so-called blue-rubber-bleb nevus syndrome]

A case of so-called blue rubber bleb naevus syndrome in a 17-year-old girl is presented. Apart from multiple haemangiomas of the skin, further lesions were present in the small and large intestine, which were demonstrated by endoscopy. The features characterizing the syndrome as a separate entity within the group of angiomatous diseases are discussed.
