    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pediatric Pathology

    Background:

    • Acquired progressive lymphangioma is a rare vascular malformation.
    • Early diagnosis and understanding of its development are crucial for effective management.

    Observation:

    • A 5-year-old Japanese boy presented with distinct dark brown, erythematous lesions on his face, scalp, and arm.
    • Histopathology revealed dilated dermal channels with a characteristic 'dissection of collagen' appearance.

    Findings:

    • The patient, the youngest reported, developed two separate lesions post-trauma.
    • Lesions demonstrated a tendency for regression following oral prednisolone therapy.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights acquired progressive lymphangioma in a pediatric patient.
  • The findings suggest potential therapeutic efficacy of oral prednisolone and underscore the importance of considering trauma as a trigger.
