“…Rare cases of neoplastic, true myxoma with poor vascularity, as defined by Stout, 6 have been reported to occur in the finger, usually with a subungual or fingertip location 7–9 . We are not certain whether these reported cases correspond to the entity of superficial angiomyoma.…”

Superficial angiomyxoma is a rare, distinctive cutaneous soft-tissue neoplasm, which shows a prominent myxoid matrix with numerous blood vessels. This condition usually presents with a nodular lesion on the trunk, head and neck, or the genital region. We describe a case of superficial angiomyxoma, which presented at an unusual digital location while also demonstrating the features of transepidermal elimination, and which mimicked a digital myxoid cyst.

“…In the literature, other regions are also mentioned, such as the hard palate, the jugal mucosa, and the infra-temporal space (Kapoor et al, 2015;Elzay et al, 1978). POM, when presenting bone destruction tends to occur in elderly patients, yet less often in males (Miettinen et al, 1985;Hill et al, 1990). In addition, cases presenting bone destruction grow more rapidly when compared to those without bone destruction (Miettinen et al, 1985;Hill et al, 1990).…”

Peripheral odontogenic myxoma (POM) is a rare and extra-osseous variant of odontogenic myxoma (OM), classified as a relatively rare benign odontogenic tumor, yet presenting locally aggressive behavior. The objective this manuscript is to report a case of POM in a 75-year-old patient, located in the right maxilla, and in addition, to perform a literature review of the data in relation to clinical, radiographic aspects, hypothesis of diagnosis, and treatment. A male patient, 75 years old, clinical examination constact the presence of a nodule, with a smooth surface, on the right upper alveolar ridge, measuring 20 x 25 mm, with a color similar to the mucosa, a softened consistency, involving teeth 14 and 15, and with an undetermined time of evolution was observed. The diagnostic hypothesis was a peripheral ossifying fibroma and differential diagnosis of peripheral giant cell lesion. An excisional biopsy was performed together with extraction of the involved teeth. Histopathological examination and histochemical reaction was confirm the histopathological diagnosis of POM. The reported case is extremely rare due to the clinical presentation of the lesion, causing bone resorption with tooth mobility. In addition, the age range of involvement is very different from that presented in the literature, between the second and fourth decade of life. The final diagnosis was very important, as it is a lesion with a great potential for recurrence, long-term follow-up should be more careful, and in case of recurrence, a new intervention must be performed.

“…Solitary cutaneous myxomas (SCM), more descriptively called solitary superficial angiomyxomas, are uncommon tumours having characteristic histological findings 1,3 . They occur most commonly on the trunk, leg, head and neck, and more rarely at acral sites of adults 3,4 . They are characterized histologically by a well‐defined, hypocellular, myxoid tumour with many vascular components in the dermis or subcutaneous fat 1 .…”

“…SCM rarely arises primarily in the corium, particularly at acral sites 1,4 . Grossly the SCM has been described as a ‘flesh coloured, hairy nodule’ or as a ‘soft, lobulated nodule that elevates the overlying skin to varying degrees’ 2 .…”
