Publication Multiple Acquired Elastotic Hemangioma in a Single Patient: A Case Report(Nepal Medical Association, 2020) Kharel, Pramisha; Chen, Jia; Chapagain, Pukar; Panth, HimalAbstract: Acquired elastotic hemangioma is a hemangioma variant which was first described in 2002. Usually it is characterized by being a benign, solitary, slow growing lesion and associated with solar exposure but here we discuss a case of 50 years old male from Australia, who had multiple pigmented and violaceous lesions on the back which he had noticed for 5 years. The cases of multiple lesions are reported few in the literature. The lesions had characteristic clinical dermatoscopic feature showing typical violaceous lesions with widespread shiny white structure without any vessels. Histopathology revealed band like proliferation of blood vessels involving superficial dermis arranged horizontally parallel to the epidermisalong with elastosis in dermis. Treatment was done through surgical excision with no relapse reported.
