A Case of Eccrine Angiomatous Hamartoma / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma is a rare condition characterized histologically by increased numbers of eccrine structures and numerous capillary channels. It may be congenital or appear later in childhood. It rarely arises during puberty or adulthood. We report a case of eccrine angiomatous hamartoma on the left shoulder in a 34-year-old man. The patient presented with asymptomatic, dome-shaped, about 3X2.5 cm, reddish telangiectatic nodule on the left shoulder. Histological examination showed an increased numbers of eccrine sweat glands and vascular structures.
