Caption:

This composite image depicts two views of a young Nigeria boy, a right-lateral view (Lt), and an anterior view. This child exhibited a malformation known as a congenital hemangioma. In this case, the tumorous outgrowth of abnormal blood vessels, both on the right and left side of his face, had caused a marked deformation of the nose, lips, and both eyes. See PHIL 20278, for a closer view of this child’s face, as seen from the left.
