Superficial angiomyxoma of the nipple: a case report of an infrequent cutaneous tumour

Superficial angiomyxoma is a distinctive cutaneous soft tissue neoplasm that is clinically variable, infrequent, and benign. However, this tumor has a high propensity for local recurrence. There is a known association of angiomyxomas with Carney complex. We report a case of superficial angiomyxoma in a 28-year-old woman who presented with an erythematous, mul-tilobulated nodule on the nipple. This tumor has a predilection for the trunk, head and neck, extremities, and genitalia. The present case, hence, is unusual, because the lesion developed on the nipple. The appearance of a solitary cutaneous angiomyx-oma warrants an examination to rule out the presence of Carney complex. After clinical examination, echocardiogram and en-docrine analyses, Carney complex was ruled out in our patient.
