[Diffuse hemangiomas of the skin and gastrointestinal tract. A case of blue rubber bleb naevus (author's transl)].
The authors report the case of a 33-year-old patient with 109 skin hemangiomas of the blue rubber bleb naevus type, accompanied by angiomas of the mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. Bleeding of the angiomas caused anemia. This case was apparently sporadic. The authors recall the clinical, histological and ultrastructural features of this rare disorder. Histology can help to differentiate BRBN from glomangioma.
