Abstract

A 2-year-old baby girl with relapsing ecchymotic lesions of the face was reported. The various diagnostic hypotheses included "child abuse", a diagnosis with impor­tant psychological repercussions, were discussed. The histological examination ruled out the diagnosis of child abuse showing a deep lymphangioma.
