Multinucleate Cell Angiohistiocytoma: A Case Report and Unique Treatment Consideration

Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma.

Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma (MCAH) is a rare cutaneous entity described as grouped erythematous to violaceous papules. Histopathologic findings include vascular proliferations with multinucleate giant cells and dermal fibrosis. We report a case of MCAH in an 83-year-old white man affecting both the right anterior thigh and left posterior calf. Additionally, the pathogenesis of MCAH and...

These lesions are probably underdiagnosed because of their similarity to other disorders, such as dermatofibroma, and because of their benign, asymptomatic nature. We report the case of a 35-year-old woman in t...
