Pyogenic granulomas (PGs), also known as lobular capillary hemangiomas, are common reactive lesions that are non-neoplastic in nature. While they typically present as isolated lesions, they can rarely develop from preexisting port-wine stains (PWSs). PWS-associated PGs may occur spontaneously but are often linked to pregnancy or prior treatments such as laser therapy, intense pulsed light therapy, or radiotherapy. Here, we report a rare case of a PG arising from a PWS on the parietal scalp of a 27-year-old man with no history of trauma or prior treatment for his PWS. Given the potential for secondary lesion development in PWS, regular monitoring is essential, particularly in patients with associated risk factors.

A 71-year-old female patient developed cellulitis-like lesions at the burns from moxibustion of the right calf. The lesion was unilateral, a single confluent lesion with swelling and tenderness. Oral antibiotic treatment was performed with a poor clinical response. The patient was hospitalized and received intravenous broad-spectrum antibiotics, but the lesion progressed without improvement. Considering the possibility of erythema nodosum, the prescription was changed to methylprednisolone, and the redness, warmth and swelling improved the day after. A skin biopsy revealed features suggestive of panniculitis

Glomus tumors (GTs) are rare benign vascular neoplasms that predominantly occur in the subungual region of the digits. However, these neoplasms have also been reported in other anatomical locations. Extradigital GTs often present in atypical locations with unconventional symptoms, posing potential diagnostic challenges for clinicians. Herein, we present a recent case of an extradigital GT found in the forearm of a 76-yearold male patient that exhibited intraoperative features similar to those of a nerve sheath tumor or intravascular tumor, further underscoring these diagnostic challenges. This report highlights the pivotal role of frozen section pathology in diagnosing and managing this atypical lesion, thereby facilitating optimal patient care.
