A 16-year-old male patient had multiple angiokeratotic lesions arranged in a linear pattern on his left arm. Histopathologic examination showed characteristic features of verrucous hemangioma. This entity should be distinguished from angiokeratoma or simple hemangioma. The linear arrangement of lesions as observed in this case may reflect genetic mosaicism. Deep surgery is the best treatment for verrucous hemangioma.

Background: Verrucous venous malformation (VVM), previously called "verrucous hemangioma," is a rare type of vascular malformation.
Objective: Little is known about the ultrasonographic characteristics of VVM. The present study aimed to show the conventional US and elastographic features of a VVM.

Article Synopsis
- Somatic mutations in cancer driver genes are linked to various vascular malformations, affecting both mild skin issues and severe systemic problems, with limited prior research on these mutations in the Chinese population.
- A study analyzed 67 pediatric patients with vascular malformations in Beijing, using whole-exome sequencing to identify mutations, achieving a 79.1% molecular diagnosis rate.
- The study found common mutations in the PIK3CA gene, as well as notable GNAQ and TEK mutations associated with specific vascular conditions, and highlighted the potential for molecular diagnosis to improve patient treatment and management.

Background: Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by a combination of capillary malformations, soft-tissue or bone hypertrophy, and varicose veins or venous malformations. The syndrome predisposes patients to hypercoagulable states, including venous thromboembolism and pulmonary embolism (PE).
Case Summary: A 12-year-old girl with KTS was scheduled excision of verrucous hyperkeratosis in the left foot and posterior aspect of the left leg and left thigh and excision of a cutaneous hemangioma in the right buttock.
