Angioleiomyoma is a benign tumor of the vascular system that is often not considered in the differential diagnosis of a painless subcutaneous nodule of the body. In this report, we present a rare case of angioleiomyoma of the phalanx in the left hand in a middle aged man. He underwent surgical excision of the mass with no complications. Given the nonspecific and indolent presentation, our case had a broad differential diagnosis including ganglion cyst and histopathological examination was warranted for definite diagnosis. At 9-month follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic with no signs of recurrence.
血管平滑肌瘤是一种血管系统的良性肿瘤,在身体无痛性皮下结节的鉴别诊断中常常未被考虑。在本报告中,我们呈现了一例中年男性左手指骨血管平滑肌瘤的罕见病例。他接受了肿物的手术切除,无并发症发生。鉴于其非特异性和惰性表现,我们的病例鉴别诊断范围广泛,包括腱鞘囊肿,明确诊断需要进行组织病理学检查。在9个月的随访中,患者无症状,无复发迹象。
