The American Journal of dermatopathology(2024)
摘要
ABSTRACT:Lichen myxedematosus (LM) is an uncommon cutaneous mucinosis characterized by the deposition of mucin and fibroblast proliferation in the dermis. This condition can be classified into 2 forms: a diffuse/generalized LM, also known as scleromyxedema, associated with monoclonal gammopathy and systemic implications, and a localized form, primarily affecting the skin. Within the localized form, nodular-type LM is a rare variant presenting as firm, skin-colored to pinkish mucinous nodules. In this article, we report 2 new cases of nodular-type LM with exclusive involvement of the hands and provide a comprehensive review of the diagnosis, histopathological aspects, and therapeutic considerations of this rare condition.
