ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Acquired port-wine stains (APWS) are rare vascular malformations that share the same clinical and histological features as their congenital counterparts. Rare cases of AWPS secondary to trauma or in association with medications have been reported in the literature. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
We report two cases of APWS. One case appeared at the age of 2 months, the earliest reported in the literature and continued to evolve till the age of 3 years presenting with multifocal distribution mainly affecting the lower face. The second case developed during oral isotretinoin intake and persisted after discontinuation of the treatment. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSIONS:
The second patient declined treatment, but the first patient had a remarkable improvement following treatment with the pulsed dye laser, which remains the standard of care for capillary malformations on the face.Palavras-chave
