A rare case of leiomyoma presented as tender papulo-nodular skin lesions. These lesions developed over a decade in a middle-aged man, confirming leiomyoma histopathologically.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Leiomyomas are benign tumors originating from smooth muscle tissue.
  • Cutaneous leiomyomas can manifest in various forms, including piloleiomyomas and angioleiomyomas.
  • Atypical presentations of leiomyomas warrant detailed clinical and histopathological evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a unique case of cutaneous leiomyoma with a distinctive clinical presentation.
  • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and histopathological confirmation of leiomyoma.
  • To contribute to the understanding of rare leiomyoma variants and their management.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical case presentation of a 59-year-old male patient.
  • Detailed description of lesion development, distribution, and characteristics.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Histopathological examination of excised papulo-nodular lesions.

    • Main Results:

    • Gradual onset and slow progression of tender papulo-nodular lesions over 10 years.
    • Lesions exhibited a naevoid distribution on the left side of the trunk.
    • Histopathology confirmed the classical features of leiomyoma.

    Conclusions:

    • This case illustrates a rare, slowly progressive presentation of cutaneous leiomyoma.
    • Histopathological analysis remains the gold standard for diagnosing leiomyoma.
    • Awareness of diverse clinical manifestations is crucial for accurate diagnosis of leiomyoma.
