Resumo

A 7-year-old boy was presented with a long-standing slowly growing mass of the left supraorbital area. A biopsy specimen revealed a bland spindle cell proliferation with scattered polygonal cells with acidophilic cytoplasm and cross-striations. Our differential diagnosis included rhabdomyoma of fetal type, leiomyoma with trapping of regenerating skeletal muscle elements, and rhabdomyomatous mesenchymal hamartoma of the skin. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated strong positivity of myoglobin and desmin as well as negativity of caldesmon, suggesting skeletal muscle lineage. The excisional specimen confirmed our diagnosis of cutaneous fetal rhabdomyoma of intermediate type. Additional immunostaining performed on the excisional specimen showed strong Wilms Tumor 1 but only a very faint and focal p63 expression.
