| Summary: | Milia are common in children. They are small, keratinizing cysts that arise either as primary epidermoid cysts or secondary to other dermatoses, trauma or certain medications. In the paediatric population, milia are most frequently congenital and resolve spontaneously. Infantile hemangiomas are relatively common in neonates. They typically arise within the first few weeks of life, undergo a proliferative phase in the first 6 months, then begin to involute at around 12 months of age. After involution, residual skin changes may be observed, such as telangiectasia, fibrofatty tissue and redundant skin. However, there is a gap in the literature regarding concomitant milia and infantile hemangiomas. We report a case of a 5-months-old female who presented with a large, segmental infantile hemangioma of the posterior neck with milia.
