Rare, benign (not yet consolidated in its entity), solitary, dermal vascular tumor, rare > 1.0 cm, which is clinically represented as a red or bluish surface smooth nodule. Cases of multiple papillary hemangiomas have also been published.

Histology
This section has been translated automatically.

In the dermis, blurred, cell-dense, lobular vascular proliferates with a papillary, branched structural pattern are impressive; they develop within ectatic thin-walled vessels.

It is very similar to glomeruloid hemangioma. However, the association with the POEMS syndrome seems to be missing.
