Verrucous hemangiomas are usually congenital lesions which typically presen
t as warty, bluish, vascular papules, plaques, or nodules, mainly on the lo
wer limbs of children. They show no tendency to spontaneous resolution, and
tend to spread and recur after inadequate treatments. We report two instan
ces of verrucous hemangioma, one in an adult and one in a child, discuss th
e clinical, histopathologic, and therapeutic aspects of this entity, and re
view the literature.
