  Fig. 1 (A) A solitary asymptomatic, 6-mm-sized, erythematous to yellowish-colored, dome-shaped nodule on the left forearm. (B) The dermal tumor abutted the epidermis and extended into the subcutis (H&E, ×40). (C) A storiform pattern of arranged spindle cells and entrapped collagen bundles was noted (H&E, ×100). (D) The foamy cells showed diffuse cytoplasmic staining with CD68.
