A congenital smooth muscle hamartoma usually presents as a congenital hairy patch or plaque with or without hyperpigmentation on the trunk or extremities. The congenital smooth muscle hamartoma with follicular spotted appearance is a rare clinical variant, and is appeared as a patch with marked follicular papules.
