Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a rare, sporadic condition that presents at birth as a localised or generalised reticulated, blue-violet vascular network in the skin. The prognosis is usually good, with minor associated anomalies. Clinical improvement occurs within the first 2 years in most cases but the lesions occasionally persist.
