Abstract

Rapidly growing lesions always require careful examination. Due to pregnancy, certain pre-existing lesions may become visible or symptomatic due to accelerated growth and present a challenging differential diagnosis. It is essential to investigate these lesions carefully to establish an accurate diagnosis and ensure appropriate treatment. Due to hormonal and physiological changes during pregnancy, cutaneous lesions may arise and develop more rapidly than usual. In this case report we discuss a lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) on the left breast that developed rapidly during pregnancy. The management of fast-growing lesions with possible differential diagnoses, especially during pregnancy, is explored. Early recognition and appropriate management of these lesions are crucial because some of them can be life-threatening.
