thinking on the lines of nerve sheath tumour and perineurioma. benign mesenchymal lesion like a fibroma of tendon sheath or desmoplastic fibroblastoma also a possibility. would do S100, EMA, CD34, Smooth muscle actin and Desmin

Due to topography we have to think in cellular digital fibroma (probably a variant of superficial acral fibromyxoma). As Urmila mentioned, I would still perform a pannel of immunos my main differential is neurofibroma (some mast cells seen in last picture).

Superficial Acral Fibromyxoma, cellular type.

Wonder myxoid tissue is more than it looks, and there are some nice mast cells too!

I was thinking of a solid variant of angioleiomyoma, but it is too superficial, so favour SAF.

Sorry: errata corrige angiomyxoma with fibromyxoma!!!

Same thought at the same time dear Vincenzo

Yes, superficial acral fibromyxoma. Bland spindled cells with fascicular arrangement embedded in myxocollagenous vascular matrix with increased numbers of mast cells, tipically separated by a grenz zone from the epidermis (upper two images) and from the flat epithelium of the nail bed (bottom left image).
