Summary Composite cutaneous haemangioendothelioma is a recently characterized rare tumour of vascular origin. As there are only a few reported cases, the biological behaviour of the tumour and appropriate therapeutic approaches are not yet clear. We report a new case of composite cutaneous haemangioendothelioma and discuss prognostic and therapeutic aspects of this neoplasm.
