Morphologic Spectrum of Rhabdomyomatous Mesenchymal Hamartomas (Striated Muscle Hamartomas) in Pediatric Dermatopathology

Conclusions: RMH is a benign hamartomatous lesion with a variable phenotypic spectrum. RMHs predominate in the head and neck. Familiarity with these lesions, including their presentation in less frequent anatomical sites, is important to avoid diagnostic misinterpretations and potential overtreatment. This study represents one of the largest series of RMHs in the literature, including an unusual case in a perianal location.
