Rhabdomyomatous mesenchymal hamartoma
Keywords:
Hamartoma, pyloric stenosis, hypertrophic, dermisAbstract
We present a case of a 12-year-old girl with a nodular lesion on her chin, it appeared 6 months previously. Histopathology examination revealed the presence skeletal muscle fibers in reticular dermis and subcutaneous tissues associated with normal-appearing mesenchymal elements. She had a diagnosis of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis when she was born. For our knowledge this is the first case publicized in Colombia and we report the association with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.
