Dermoscopic findings in umbilical granuloma are vascular polymorphism comprised of linear irregular and arborizing vessels with structureless areas distributed over a milky‐red background. The increase of angiogenesis and neovascularization is represented by the linear irregular and arborizing vessels. Structureless areas over an irregularly milky‐red background are originated by the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells and fibroblasts, with capillary and granulation tissue formation.
