چکیده

Sir, Verrucous haemangioma (VH) is a rare, congenital and localized vascular malformation that appears at birth or in early childhood with a predilection for the lower extremities (1). It later becomes verruciform and tends to enlarge and spread peripherally. The linear form of VH is extremely rare and only a few case reports have been presented in the literature (2 – 4). We describe a linear VH localized in a dermatomal distribution on the abdomen that has not previously been reported.
