In the past decades, there was a considerable advance in regard to recognition of morphologic findings and classification of several benign and malignant vascular proliferations. In 2002, attention was called by Requena et al to a new variant of cutaneous hemangioma named acquired elastotic hemangioma. In this article, a case of acquired elastotic hemangioma is reported with documentation of clinical, dermatoscopic, histopathological, and immunohistochemical findings. A systematic review of the previously 49 reported cases is provided. The criteria for clinical and histopathological diagnosis are highlighted.

Keratoelastoidosis marginalis of the hands (KEMH) is an acquired form of marginal papular keratoderma, characterized by thickened keratotic plaques predominantly affecting the lateral side of the index finger and the medial side of the thumb. It is often associated with chronic sun exposure and trauma, usually affecting older individuals. Due to clinical similarities with other palmoplantar keratodermas, differential diagnosis is essential for effective treatment management.

Linear focal elastosis (LFE) is an uncommon, benign, acquired elastotic condition with uncertain pathogenesis. It is characterized clinically by asymptomatic, multiple, yellowish, elevated, irregularly indurated, striae-like lines or bands distributed horizontally across the lower and middle part of the posterior trunk. The histopathological hallmark of LFE is a focal increase of elastic fibres in the dermis.

Acquired elastotic hemangioma (AEH) is a rare variant of hemangioma that usually presents as an asymptomatic, solitary, slow-growing red plaque on a sun-exposed site of an adult. Ultraviolet radiation can contribute to the pathogenesis of this hemangioma. Lichen sclerosus (LS), a scarring disease, may present a prominent accumulation of elastic fibers in the reticular dermis reflecting a reparative process.
