Abstract :Birthmarks are very commonly seen cutaneous disorders among infants. Unfortunately most of those lesions are misdiagnosed as hemangiomas due to the clinical characteristics, findings, and varied physical appearances; as such, in this respect, patients are misinformed and misguided. In this review, we consider the misconceptions and confusing aspects of commonly occurring birthmarks and take into consideration the advances in updates to present this topic in a way that will be of use to most specialties.
Keywords : birthmark, vascular malformation, vascular tumor
