Bladder hemangiomas and Proteus syndrome: a rare clinical association.

[proteus syndrome]

A case of bladder hemangiomas in association with Proteus syndrome (PS) is described. PS is a rare hamartomatous disorder and comprises an association of verrucous epidermal nevi, infantile hemangiomas, lipoma-like subcutaneous hamartomas and asymmetrical overgrowth of almost any part of the body. To our knowledge, this is the second case reported of hematuria associated with bladder hemangiomas in PS.
