Abstract

A 14-year-old male presented to a pediatric dermatology clinic for painful skin-colored leg nodules (Fig 1). For the past 7 months, these nodules would transiently appear and disappear on his left lower leg while walking far distances or uphill. In the clinic, standing or bearing weight on the leg elicited the appearance of the nodules while plantar flexion of the foot and cessation of weight bearing caused the nodules to disappear (Video 1, available on www.jaad.org). The patient had previously seen other medical providers and underwent static leg ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies which revealed no abnormalities.
