Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis is a rare idiopathic hamartomatous anomaly of the skin characterized by the presence of clusters of mature fat cells among the collagen bundles of the dermis. The classic, or solitary type, presents with asymptomatic soft, skin-colored to yellow papules or nodules. We report the case of a 12-year-old boy with congenital, classical nevus lipomatosus cuta...

Cutaneous myopericytoma is a rarely reported mesenchymal neoplasm with a benign biologic behavior. It is seen more commonly in males and typically occurs in adults on the distal extremities. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 13 reports describing 45 cases of cutaneous myopericytoma in the literature. The 3 cases in this report expand the clinical presentation and reinforce the histop...

The cutaneous epithelioid angiomatous nodule is an uncommon benign vascular proliferation that has only recently been described. Clinically, it usually presents as a solitary, fast-growing, small reddish papulous or nodular lesion on the trunk or limbs of adults. Histopathologic study reveals a proliferation of epithelioid cells and predominantly solid, well delimited, unilobular growth in the ...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) rarely occurs as a primary cutaneous lesion. We report a case of cutaneous IMT in an 8-year-old girl presenting with an ulcerated nodule on the cheek. Although cutaneous IMT poses a diagnostic challenge because of its rarity, excision of the lesion is likely to be curative.

Cutaneous metastasis is a rare manifestation of visceral malignancies that indicates primarily advanced disease. Due to its low incidence and similarity to other cutaneous lesions, it is not uncommon to have a delayed diagnosis and a shortened prognosis. We describe the case of a patient who presented with a cutaneous nodule in the sternal region as a first sign of malignancy.

A patient who had a migratory cutaneous nodule and tumor removed for the second time was diagnosed as having the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica. In this article, we present a case report of this peculiar manifestation of fascioliasis, as well as a general overview of the disease.

Schwannoma is a benign encapsulated nerve sheath tumor composed of Schwann cells, that may arise anywhere along the course nerve. Cutaneous schwannomas, associated with peripheral nerves, usually present as slow-growing well-circumscribed nodule, localized in dermis or subcutaneous tissue. They are generally asymptomatic; however, they become painful by nervous compression. Since clinical signs...

Basal Cell Carcinoma is a common cutaneous malignancy, occurring primarily on the face . It has many histological variants. We present a case of a 71year old farmer with a nodule near outer canthus of the right eye, since six months. Histopathological examination of the excised nodule revealed a tumour composed of basaloid cells with an adenoid pattern of growth. Based on the histopathological ...
