Abstract
- Angioleiomyoma is a solitary form of leiomyoma that usually occurs in the subcutis and is composed of numerous thick-walled vessels. It occurs more frequently in women and preferentially on the extremities, particularly the lower leg. The tumor is usually painful and tender. We report a rare case of asymptomatic angioleiomyoma occurring on the lower lip.
