Author(s):

Afaf Khouna, Siham Dikhaye, Nada Zizi

Abstract:
Tufted angioma (TA) is a rare vascular neoplasm. It can be congenital or acquired. Its clinical presentation is of a solitary angiomatous tumor. Multifocal lesions have been rarely reported in the literature. In addition, tufted angioma can be associated with Kasabach–Merritt phenomenon, though rare, causes complications and hence needs to be recognized. We report a case of multifocal tufted angiomas with a primary lesion and 2 satellite lesions for the rarity of the condition.
