Abstract

|
Angiomyxolipoma is a recently described and rare variant of lipoma that is characterized by the proliferation of adipose tissue with a myxoid stroma and multiple thick and thin-walled blood vessels. A 51-year-old man presented with a tender subcutaneous nodule on his right arm. The tumor was completely removed by excisional biopsy, and the histopathologic features revealed a thin fibrous capsule with incomplete fibrous septa extending into the lesion, dividing it into lobules of different sizes. The fat cells were mature, with a single vacuole and an eccentric nucleus. The vascular component consisted of groups of capillaries and occasional vessels of larger caliber. Erythrocytes were present within the lumen, and myxoid stroma was found. He was diagnosed as having angiomyxolipoma. Herein, we report a rare case of subcutaneous angiomyxolipoma of the arm. We also review and discuss such cases in the literature.
