چکیده

A 3-month-old boy was referred for the evaluation of numerous reddish bumps all over the body, present since birth. Second-born of a non-consanguineous parentage, the baby was normally delivered and was otherwise healthy. Examination showed numerous bright red papules – some with erythematous base – distributed over the trunk, limbs, face, and genitalia (Fig. 1). Abdominal ultrasonography was normal. Histopathology of a biopsied specimen showed features of capillary hemangioma, and the child was diagnosed to have Benign neonatal hemangiomatosis (BNH).
