Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) may present in sporadic or familial forms, with different cutaneous manifestations including deep blue nodules, capillary malformations, and hyperkeratotic cutaneous capillary venous malformations (HCCVM). We report the case of an infant with a KRIT1-positive HCCVM associated with familial CCM. Moreover, histopathology showed positive immunohistochemical stain with GLUT1, further expanding the differential diagnosis of GLUT1-positive vascular anomalies.
