Angioleiomyoma in soft tissue of extremities: MRI findings.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of our study was to describe the MRI findings of angioleiomyoma in the soft tissue of the extremities.


CONCLUSIONS
Angioleiomyoma should be considered a possible diagnosis when a well-demarcated subcutaneous mass of isointense signal on T1-weighted images, heterogeneous high signal intensity on T2-weighted images with homogeneous strong enhancement, and an adjacent tortuous vascular structure is seen in the extremities.
