Cutaneous Leiomyomas

Leiomyoma is a benign tumour that frequently affects the genitourinary and gastrointestinal systems in adults. Cutaneous leiomyomas are rare benign tumours that originate from the hair follicle’s arrector pili muscle. Adults are more likely than children to develop cutaneous leiomyomas. There are three types: piloleiomyoma, dartoic leiomyoma and angioleiomyoma. We report ten cases of cutaneous leiomyoma with clinico-dermoscopic and histopathological evaluation, which, to the best of our knowledge, is being reported less frequently.

Abstract

Leiomyoma is a benign tumour that frequently affects the genitourinary and gastrointestinal systems in adults. Cutaneous leiomyomas are rare benign tumours that originate from the hair follicle’s arrector pili muscle. Adults are more likely than children to develop cutaneous leiomyomas. There are three types: piloleiomyoma, dartoic leiomyoma and angioleiomyoma. We report ten cases of cutaneous leiomyoma with clinico-dermoscopic and histopathological evaluation, which, to the best of our knowledge, is being reported less frequently.
