Abstract

A 45-year-old man presented with linear cord-like nodules on the left chest and abdomen. He complained of episodic pain and mild tenderness of the lesion. The clinical impression was Mondor's disease and skin biopsy was done. The histopathologic findings revealed a poorly circumscribed tumor composed of interlacing smooth muscle fiber bundles with intermingled collagen, consistent with cutaneous leiomyoma. We report a case of cutaneous leiomyoma clinically mimicking Mondor's disease.
