Abstract

Hemangioma and vessel deformities (including vascular malformations and lymphatic vessel deformity) are very common congenital or acquired lesions and are visible in any site of the body surface. About 60% of them are distributed in the head and neck, about 20% of them are distributed in the four limbs, and the proportion of hand lesions is not explicitly reported.
