Summary Acquired tufted angioma is a distinctive condition that is different from other types of acquired vascular proliferation. Despite the progressive spread of these angiomas, they appear to be benign, and malignant change has not been encountered. 1 We describe a case of recurrent acquired tufted angioma associated with pregnancy, an association which has not been previously recorded.
