Abstract:
Among recently characterized vascular tumors, tufted angioma or angioblastoma is a benign acquired slowly progressive cutaneous tumor, which most commonly arises in the neck and upper trunk in children and young adults. We describe such a case occurring in an elderly person. Clinically this tumour may closely mimic Kaposi`s sarcoma and should be biopsied for histological confirmation of the diagnosis.
