Cutaneous leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas are rare tumors that originate from the arrector muscle of hair follicles or the smooth muscle of blood vessels.
A 74-year-old male presented with a single, erythematous nodule on the left upper arm. This lesion developed within the excision scar of a piloleiomyoma that had been excised 3 years ago. Additionally, physical examination revealed a tender nodule on the right ear.
Histological examination showed a cutaneous leiomyosarcoma with myxoid alteration on the upper arm and an angioleiomyoma on the right ear.
Myxoid leiomyosarcomas have exclusively been reported in the uterus and gastrointestinal tract, but not in the skin. Here, we describe a case of cutaneous leiomyosarcoma with myxoid alteration that developed in the excision scar of a piloleiomyoma and was accompanied by a cutaneous angioleiomyoma in a different location.
皮肤平滑肌瘤和平滑肌肉瘤是罕见的肿瘤,起源于毛囊竖毛肌或血管平滑肌。
一名74岁男性左上臂出现单个红斑结节。该病变发生在3年前切除的皮肤平滑肌瘤的手术瘢痕内。此外,体格检查发现右耳有一个压痛结节。
组织学检查显示左上臂为伴有黏液样改变的皮肤平滑肌肉瘤,右耳为血管平滑肌瘤。
黏液样平滑肌肉瘤仅在子宫和胃肠道有报道,皮肤未见报道。在此,我们描述了一例发生在皮肤平滑肌瘤切除瘢痕内并伴有另一部位皮肤血管平滑肌瘤的伴有黏液样改变的皮肤平滑肌肉瘤病例。
