title: Congenital hemangioma of eccrine sweat glands.
abstract: We present six patients with congenital hemangioma of eccrine sweat glands. In every one the lesion was congenital, clinically angiomatous, painless, and nonsweating, with progressive involution over months. Histologically all specimens showed many dilated capillaries with prominent endothelial cells associated with the eccrine sweat gland coils.
