We describe a man with acquired unilateral nevoid telangiectasia syndrome, in whom no underlying disease, alcohol abuse or physiological conditions causing hormonal changes are demonstrable. To our knowledge, tnis is the first case of acquired unilateral nevoid telangiectasia syndrome seen in a healthy adult male and not associated with a hyperestrogenaemic state and estrogen receptor abnormality. This case report casts doubt on the commonly held view that unilateral nevoid telangiectasia syndrome is an estrogen-sensitive nevoid anomaly.
