Targetoid hemosiderotic hemangioma.
A case of targetoid hemosiderotic hemangioma on the buttock of a 20-year-old pregnant woman is presented. Eight cases of this newly-described entity were initially reported by Santa Cruz and Aronberg in 1988. It is important to distinguish these vascular lesions from Kaposi's sarcoma, epithelioid hemangioma, and progressive lymphangioma.
