Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma

J Am Acad Dermatol. 2002 Sep;47(3):429-35. doi: 10.1067/mjd.2002.121030.

Abstract

Four patients with eccrine angiomatous hamartoma are described. Blue-purple color, enlarging size, location on an extremity, pain, and hypertrichosis were common features and aided differentiation from other vascular anomalies and hamartomas of childhood. None of our patients experienced lesional hyperhidrosis, and simple excision alleviated pain.
