Abstract
We describe a 37-year-old woman with an extensive congenital reticulate vascular naevus affecting predominantly the right side of the body associated with a naevus anaemicus. Investigation of persistent ulceration and scarring of the lower legs revealed right-sided hypoplasia of the hemipelvis and underlying ipsilateral hypoplasia of the deep veins of the pelvis and leg. This association has not previously been reported and its implications for morbidity and management are discussed.
