A case of benign vascular tumor of the ankle is presented, along with a history and classification of hemangiomas and hemangiopericytomas. The primary diagnosis was hypertrophic hemangioma or hemangiopericytoma. Differentiating these tumors was difficult because staining techniques did not readily separate endothelial from pericytic cells. This is a discussion of two vascular tumors, both of which are uncommon in the foot, and their similarities and differences are contrasted. Clinical and pathologic presentations, operative treatments, and further differential diagnosis are also discussed.

Aims: To investigate the clinicopathological features and molecular characteristics of sporadic hypertrophic and nodular port-wine stains (PWS).
Methods: We analysed the clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of 27 sporadic hypertrophic and nodular PWS retrieved from our pathology database from 2013 to 2023 and reviewed the relevant literature.
Results: There were 13 men and 14 women who ranged in age from 10 to 66 years.
