Poikilodermatous plaque-like hemangioma (PPH) is a recently described clinical and pathological entity, with only 18 cases reported in the literature. Although uncommon, this benign condition presents consistent clinical and histological findings. We present a new case of PPH in an 81-year-old male and review the existing literature. The persistence over time and the need to distinguish PPH from more significant lesions underscore the importance of its clinical and pathological recognition.

Poikilodermatous plaque-like hemangioma (PPLH) is a recently described benign vasoformative entity with only 16 cases reported to date. We present an additional case of a 90-year-old male who presented with a 2-year history of a relatively large, asymptomatic, atrophic plaque on his left buttock. The lesion was initially smaller and grew before stabilizing in size.

Background: We present a distinctive type of acquired vascular proliferation, for which we propose the name of poikilodermatous plaque-like hemangioma.
Objective: The aim of this study was to summarize the clinical and histopathologic features in a case series of poikilodermatous plaque-like hemangioma.
Methods: Sixteen cases were identified from the routine clinical and referral practices of the authors.
