Abstract:
Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma is a rare benign fibrohistiocytic vascular condition with distinctive histologic features. It tends to occur more frequently in middle-aged women, to favor the extremities, and to appear as grouped reddish-brown papules. We describe a case of solitary multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma that appeared as a papule on the upper lip of a 24-year-old man.
