An unusual vascular tumor: verrucous hemangioma.
Verrucous hemangioma is an uncommon capillary or cavernous hemangioma with reactive epidermal changes of hyperkeratosis, acanthosis, and papillomatosis. These growths are usually located on the lower extremities and involvement is generally unilateral. A diagnosis of verrucous hemangioma should be considered in lesions especially with a hyperkeratotic nodular appearance located on the lower extremities.
