Resumen
ALMEIDA-ESQUIVEL, Yudelky; PINON-GARCIA, Karell y MARRERO-RODRIGUEZ, Sindelys. Angiomatous hamartoma of the lymph node: case report. AMC [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.6 Epub 01-Dic-2021. ISSN 1025-0255.
Background:
angiomyomatous hamartoma of the lymph node is a rare benign vascular disease of unknown etiology. It is characterized by the replacement of the nodal parenchyma by a mixture of blood vessels, smooth muscle cells, and fibrous tissue.
Objective:
to present a patient with lymph node angiomatous hamartoma diagnosed by the Department of Pathological Anatomy.
Case report:
34-year-old white male patient, with a history of trauma in the left inguinal region, came to the clinic for presenting a palpable mass in that region. With the administration of local anesthesia and sedation, satisfactory surgical treatment was applied and the histological diagnosis of a lymph node angiomatous hamartoma was made.
Conclusions:
lymph node angiomatous hamartoma is a rare benign vascular tumor. The removal of the lesion is the treatment of choice and the definitive diagnosis is derived from the analysis of a biopsy.
