People with large congenital melanocytic naevi (CMN) have an increased risk of melanoma, neurocutaneous melanosis and neurological disorders. Congenital vascular anomalies consist ofvascular tumours and vascular malformations. Infantile hemangiomas (IH) are tumours with a unique c1inical picture and natural courseof the disease.
