Abstract

To the Editor: Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformations (CM-AVMs), and port wine stains (PWSs) are different vascular anomalies that can present with similar morphology but differ in genetics, pathogenesis, progression, treatment, and prognosis.1-3 Early AVMs and CM-AVMs may mimic PWS clinically, leading to misdiagnosis and inappropriate management. In this study, we sought to determine the dermatoscopic features of AVMs and CM-AVMs, compare them with those of PWSs (controls) in a blinded manner, and detect potential fast-flow vascular malformations (FFVMs) at an early stage.
