Leiomyomatosis cutis et uteri.
A 32 year old female patient showed multiple plaque-like leiomyomata cutis and an uterus myomatosous of early onset. In the skin large areas of plaque-like confluent erythematous nodules consisting of smooth muscle tissue are formed. The patient suffered from frequent attacks of severe pain elicited by temperature changes or trauma. Treatment with nitroglycerine and nifedipine together with phenoxybenzamine completely suppressed the symptoms.
