A Case of Solitary Superficial Angiomyxoma / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Solitary superficial angiomyxoma gap (SSA), sometimes referred to as solitary cutaneous myxoma, is a relatively uncommon benign myxoid tumor of soft tissue. It is characterized clinically by slowly-growing, asymptomatic nodules on the head, neck, and trunk of adults. It is locally recurrent, but there have been no reports of metastatic spread. Histologically, SSA consists of the conglomerate of moderate-to-sparse cellular angiomyxoid nodules with scattered, small to medium-sized blood vessels in the dermis, frequently involving subcutaneous fat. We herein report a case of SSA which developed in the genital area of an 80-year-old woman.
