Vascular lesions are commonly seen in newborns. They may be present at birth or appear in the days, weeks or months that follow. Most are benign and self-limiting but rarely they may be part of complex syndromes or systemic disorders, or they may be associated with complications requiring treatment. This is a case of a 2-month-old baby presenting with an Infantile hemangioma in the genital region.
