Facial hemangioma, and associated malformations: a case report

Neuropediatrics. 2004 Jun;35(3):194-7. doi: 10.1055/s-2004-817918.

Abstract

Facial hemangioma can be isolated lesions or associated with a wide variety of systemic findings. We report a 9-month-old girl who shows an extensive facial hemangioma, intracranial and extracranial vascular malformations, a Dandy-Walker malformation and congenital cardiac malformations. This patient serves as an ample reason why children with similar cutaneous lesions should be carefully evaluated for other associated defects.
