Congenital Telangiectatic Atrophic Patch on a Healthy Child

Background: Rapidly involuting congenital hemangiomas (RICHs) are rare vascular tumors that have a proliferative phase in utero, present fully grown at birth, and have a fast involution phase after birth.

Zusammenfassung:Background: Rapidly involuting congenital hemangiomas (RICHs) are rare vascular tumors that have a proliferative phase in utero, present fully grown at birth, and have a fast involution phase after birth. Even rarer cases have completed involution in utero and present at birth as an atrophic plaque with redundant skin. Case Report: We present one case of a RICH that underwent involution in utero and revise the diagnostic and management implications.
