Cherry angioma, also called cherry hemangioma [1] or Campbell de Morgan Spot, [2] is a small bright red dome-shaped bump on the skin. [3] It ranges between 0.5 – 6 mm in diameter and usually several are present, typically on the chest and arms, and increasing in number with age. [3] [4] If scratched, they may bleed. [5]
[9] commonly presents as a painless, red and brown or red and yellow, ulcerated papule on the head or neck and may mimic nonmelanoma skin cancers, molluscum contagiosum, adnexal neoplasms, or pyogenic granuloma. [2] [6] The mean lesion size of periocular and extraocular SGc is approximately 1.4 cm. [2]

BPDCN usually (i.e. 61% [5] to 90% [8] of cases) presents with skin lesions, i.e. nodules, tumors, red or purple papules, bruise-like patches, and/or ulcers that most often occur on the head, face, and upper torso. [2] The lesions are due to diffuse infiltrations of the skin by malignant pDC.
Superficial lesions can be flat and telangiectatic, composed of a macule or patch of small, varied branching, capillary blood vessels. They can also be raised and elevated from the skin, forming papules and confluent bright-red plaques like raised islands.
papules or nodules which are red, globular and non-blanching, with a vascular appearance; purplish nodules sufficiently similar to Kaposi's sarcoma that a biopsy may be required to verify which of the two it is; a purplish lichenoid plaque; a subcutaneous nodule which may have ulceration, similar to a bacterial abscess
A maculopapular rash is a type of rash characterized by a flat, red area on the skin that is covered with small confluent bumps. It may only appear red in lighter-skinned people. The term "maculopapular" is a compound: macules are small, flat discolored spots on the surface of the skin; and papules are small, raised bumps.
