Epstein-Barr Virus-Associated Smooth Muscle Tumour: A Case Series with a Significant Proportion of Tumours Showing Proclivity for Cutaneous Soft Tissues

Conclusion: A significant proportion of EBV-SMTs may present in the cutaneous soft tissues. This neoplasm should, therefore, be included in the histopathological differential diagnosis of any cutaneous or superficial subcutaneous spindle cell tumour, especially in patients with a history of underlying immune suppression. Accurate diagnosis thereof and its distinction from other spindle cell neoplasms is important in view of management implications and the potential for multicentricity in some patients.Dermatopathology 2019;6:133 –146
