Abstract
The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is one of the most common microdeletion syndromes. It has a wide clinical spectrum, affecting multiple organ systems. Dermatological presentations are uncommon and often non-specific. We present two cases of 22q11.2DS presenting with strikingly similar matted telangiectasia in the distribution of the superior vena cava.
