The net-like superficial lymphatic malformation (LM) is a newly described entity with distinctive clinical, dermoscopic, and histologic characteristics. Clinical picture consists of red to purplish macules with a finely reticulated pattern of vascular structures. Dermoscopy shows arborizing telangiectatic vessels. Histology is characterized by a vascular proliferation composed of thin-walled vessels, located in the upper dermis, that stains positive with podoplanin (D2-40). We report a new case of LM with an additional clinical feature, hypopigmented areas.
