Abstract

Introduction: Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma is characterized by a proliferation of multiple eccrine and vascular structures, generally presenting from birth, with growth proportional to the individual, as solitary or multiple plaques or nodules of variable color that mainly affect the distal extremities. The exact pathogenesis is unknown, but several theories have been proposed, including abnormal heterotypic dependency induction with resulting malformation of adnexal and mesenchymal elements. The diagnosis must be confirmed with a histopathological study, where a neoplasm in the middle or deep dermis with proliferation of eccrine glands and vascular structures will be found. For symptomatic patients, surgical excision is the treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
