Angioleiomyoma of the Foot

J Am Podiatr Med Assoc. 2019 Sep;109(5):397-400. doi: 10.7547/17-083.

Abstract

Angioleiomyomas are benign soft-tissue tumors that present painfully and are more commonly found in the extremities. Although benign soft-tissue tumors do not require excision, the clinician may not always know the type of tumor, and patient symptomatology may require removal of the offending body. In this article, we present our case findings of a 45-year-old man presenting with a subcutaneous angioleiomyoma subcalcis.
