AB More  than  one-third  of  infants  are  born  with  a  vascular  birthmark.1  Although  most  of  these  lesions  are  benign  and  uncomplicated,  a  minority  require  treatment  and  inpatient  care.  The  pediatric  hospitalist  should  be  able  to  recognize  major  types  of  vascular  anomalies  and  identify  lesions  requiring  referral  to,  or  immediate  medical  care  in  collaboration  with,  vascular  anomaly  specialists  in  fields  such  as  dermatology,  surgery,  hematology/oncology,  pathology,  orthopedics,  and  radiology.
