title: Venous lakes of the ears.
abstract: Venous lakes of the ears and telangiectasias of the ears and cheeks were seen in older men living in Texas who were known to have had long-term sun exposure. Even though these are benign changes, these patients should be checked routinely for possible skin malignancies, especially basal cell carcinomas.
