Palmar cutaneous hamartoma.
We report a case of a complex hamartomatous lesion of the skin which presented in a 75-year-old woman as a painful nodule of the palm. Histology showed eccrine glands, fat, angiomatous vessels, and neurovascular glomic-like bodies, variously admixed and immersed in a cellular, fibroblastic stroma. The name palmar cutaneous hamartoma is proposed for this unusual lesion.
