  • Title: Plexiform xanthoma: an unusual variant.
    Author: Beham A, Fletcher CD.
    Journal: Histopathology; 1991 Dec; 19(6):565-7. PubMed ID: 1786941.
    Abstract:
    We present a 35-year-old male patient with a recurrent xanthoma within the dermis of the elbow. There was no clinical evidence of hyperlipidaemia. The very unusual feature in this case was the presence of a plexiform growth pattern, not to our knowledge previously described in xanthomata. This necessitated distinction from a true neoplasm, most particularly of neural type.
