| Sumario: | bstract: The coiled and dotted vessels in a serpiginous arrangement or “string of pearls” is considered a classical vascular
pattern associated with clear cell acanthoma. We present three cases of epidermal tumors different from clear cell acanthoma
that have the same “string of pearls” vascular pattern. Even though most authors keep considering the “string of pearls”
vascular pattern an almost pathognomonic sign of clear-cell acanthoma, the cases presented here suggest that some other
epidermal tumors can also show this pattern.
