Acral angioosteoma cutis.

2010 
Acral angioosteoma cutis is a benign lesion of unknown pathogenesis and is a newly described, distinct entity from other cutaneous lesions. It is clinically characterized by an exophytic lesion resembling pyogenic granuloma on the acral skin, combined with histologic findings of multiple tiny spicules composed of woven bone between well-formed capillaries proliferating in the superficial dermis. Here, we present a case of acral angioosteoma cutis on the left third toe of a 58-year-old woman, which was successfully treated by excision.
