Introduction: The association between neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) and vasculopathy has been reported frequently, especially cerebral, intestinal, and peripheral vasculopathy. However, cutaneous vasculopathy is infrequent.
Case Report: The authors present the case of a 32-year-old man with a painful ulcer on his left thigh of 3 weeks' duration in the same location as a long-time capillary malformation associated with alopecia.
A 92-year-old woman was referred for the assesment of an asymptomatic subcutaneous tumor that developed after an accidental fall. The mass clinically and radiologically simulated a subcutaneous hematoma. Finally, the histological study was consistent with subcutaneous dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.
