ABSTRACT
Infantile hemangioma (IH) usually presents solely as a cutaneous manifestation, and rarely accompanies diverse anomalies such as spinal dysraphism. A 2-month-old girl presented with IH on her lumbar skin as a coin-sized red plaque with adjacent depressed skin and a child-palm-sized red plaque on her left ankle since birth. Considering the coexistence of IH and depressed skin on the midline in her lumbosacral area, magnetic resonance imaging of her spine was performed, which showed intraspinal/dermal vascular tumors with spina bifida occulta at the 12th thoracic vertebrae level. Furthermore, no neurologic deficits were observed. She has been taking oral propranolol with topical timolol to prevent neural complications and the lesions clinically improved. However, additional surgery for the intraspinal lesions was considered due to urination/defecation abnormalities since she was 13 months of age. In cases of midline IH, particularly with additional skin lesions, appropriate imaging studies to identify accompanying anomalies should be performed, and referrals to neurosurgical specialists should be considered.
