Hemangioma

A 25-year-old woman consulted for a dark blue papular lesion on her left thigh present for 6 years.
Dermoscopy revealed numerous red-blue lacunes (or red-blue saccules) in favor of an hemangioma.
A scar-like depigmentation was present on this lacunar pattern (or saccular pattern).
Fibrosis
is a pathological finding sometimes found in hemangiomas.
