A case of bladder hemangiomas in association with Proteus syndrome (PS) is described. PS is a rare hamartomatous disorder and comprises an association of verrucous epidermal nevi, infantile hemangiomas, lipoma-like subcutaneous hamartomas and asymmetrical overgrowth of almost any part of the body. To our knowledge, this is the second case reported of hematuria associated with bladder hemangiomas in PS. (C) 2009 Journal of Pediatric Urology Company. Published by Elsevier B.V.
