Angiomyoma
Definition

Clinically known also as vascular leiomyoma or angioleiomyoma, this histological lesion frequently develops within the deep dermis or subcutaneous tissue of the lower extremities in adults, manifesting as a small, firm nodule that is often painful to the touch or during temperature changes.
