Abstract:
We report a 2-year-old boy with a plaque on the upper arm composed of multiple 2- to 3-mm leiomyomata which developed at the age of 3 months and have been unchanged since. Immunohistologically there was positive staining for the muscle intermediate filament desmin. We discuss the unusual clinical presentation and possible prognosis.
