What about a "Cutaneous (superficial) Angiomyxoma"?

"What about a "Cutaneous (superficial) Angiomyxoma"?"

thought a lot of a dermal nerve sheath myxoma, but favour SAM.

Agree with the differential diagnosis IHC would be helpful. The pictures do not show a prominent vascular network or neutrophils that are frequently seen in SAM but there are some trapped follicles and giant cell reaction that although not specific are usually in this entity. Here a nice article of Fletcher and Calonje that we recently shared with Sasi Attili and highlights the importance of ruling out Carney syndrome when multiple lesions are present.

Forgot to mention that another diff dx to consider in this kind of case is myxoid neurofibroma, although morphologically I do not favour this dx

First impression: nerve sheath myxoma.

Agree with superficial angiomyxoma. Clinical presentation of a solitary lesion located away from eyelid, ear, and nipple favors a sporadic tumor rather than association with the Carney complex.

Interesting case. Question- how do we differentiate from myxoid NF?
