  • Title: [Congenital smooth muscle hamartoma. Clinical-histological considerations (3 cases)].
    Author: Donati P, Catricalà C, Amantea A, Balus L.
    Journal: G Ital Dermatol Venereol; 1990 Oct; 125(10):453-5. PubMed ID: 2081624.
    Abstract:
    The Authors report 3 cases of "Congenital Smooth Muscle Hamartoma" (CSMH). CSMH presents as congenital patches or slightly indurated plaques with prominent overlying hair, often hyperpigmented. Histopathologic examination showed increased numbers of well-defined smooth muscle bundles in the superficial and deep dermis. CSMH and Becker's nevus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any congenital hairy hamartoma.
