Acrochordon, pedunculated, fibrous mass covered with epithelium of varied thickness, H&E stain

An acrochordon (plural acrochorda; also known as a skin tag^[1] or fibroepithelial polyp^[2]) is a small benign tumor that forms primarily in areas where the skin forms creases, such as the neck, armpit, and groin. They may also occur on the face, usually on the eyelids. Acrochorda are harmless, are typically painless and usually do not grow or change over time.^{[citation needed]} Though tags up to a half-inch long have been seen,^[3] they are typically the size of a grain of rice. The surface of an acrochordon may be smooth or irregular in appearance and is often raised from the surface of the skin on a fleshy stalk called a peduncle. Microscopically, an acrochordon consists of a fibro-vascular core, sometimes also with fat cells, covered by an unremarkable epidermis. However, tags may become irritated by shaving, clothing, jewellery or eczema.

It is believed that skin tags occur from skin rubbing up against skin, since they are so often found in skin creases and folds.^[3] Studies have shown existence of low-risk HPV 6 and 11 in skin tags, hinting at a possible role in its pathogenesis.^[4] Acrochorda have been reported to have a prevalence of 46% in the general population.^[5] A causal genetic component is thought to exist.^[6] They also are more common in women than in men.^[7] Rarely, they can be associated with the Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, acromegaly, and polycystic ovary syndrome.^[8]

Skin tags may serve as a marker for those people whose carbohydrate metabolism is impaired and for those who may be at risk for diabetes mellitus type 2.^[9] Elevated blood sugar and insulin increase the incidence of skin tags through an unknown mechanism.^{[citation needed]}

Treatment

Because tags are benign, treatment is unnecessary unless the tags become frequently irritated or present a cosmetic concern. If removal is desired or warranted, then a dermatologist, general practitioner, or similarly trained professional may use cauterisation, cryosurgery, excision, or surgical ligation to remove the acrochorda.^[3]

Fibroma of Tendon Sheath Located within Kager's Triangle.

Jacobs E1, Witlox MA2, Hermus JP3.Author information 1PhD Student, Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, Maastricht University, Maastricht, The Netherlands.2Orthopaedic Surgeon, Foot and Ankle Specialist, Research School CAPHRI, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, The Netherlands.3Orthopaedic Surgeon, Foot and Ankle Specialist, Research School CAPHRI, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Maastricht University Medical Centre, Maastricht, The Netherlands. Electronic address: j.hermus@mumc.nl.AbstractThe formation of a fibroma of the tendon sheath, a rare, slow-growing, benign tumor, usually occurs in the upper extremities of young adult males. We present an extremely rare case of a fibroma of the tendon sheath arising adjacent to the Achilles tendon within Kager's triangle in a 41-year-old female. The patient presented with progressive pain localized to the posterior aspect of the left ankle. Complete excision and histopathologic analysis of the fibroma were performed. The patient experienced an uneventful recovery after the intervention and had no evidence of recurrence after 3 months of follow-up. Fibroma of the tendon sheath should be included in the differential diagnosis when a patient presents with a painful soft tissue mass in Kager's triangle.

Soft tissue angiofibroma: a case report.

Lee JJ1, Bredella MA, Springfield DS, Nielsen GP.Author information 1Harvard Medical School, 250 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115, USA, jonathan_lee@hms.harvard.edu.AbstractSoft tissue angiofibroma is a recently described neoplasm that typically presents as a slowly growing, painless mass in the soft tissues of the lower extremities. Cytogenetic and molecular studies have identified a recurrent t(5;8) translocation. Treatment is simple excision. Existing data suggest that this tumor is benign and has a low rate of local recurrence. The radiologic and pathologic differential diagnoses for this lesion include both benign and malignant lesions, including plantar fibromatosis, tenosynovial giant cell tumor, fibroma of tendon sheath, epithelioid sarcoma, and low-grade myxofibrosarcoma. Proper identification of this benign lesion through radiologic and pathologic correlation is important to prevent misdiagnosis of a low-grade sarcoma.

Multiple Irritation Fibromas After Dorsum Linguae Biopsy.

Zhao X1, Liu DJ, Xu CX, Hu T, Zhou Y, Jiang L, Dan HX, Xu Y, Zeng X, Chen QM.Author information 1From the State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.AbstractIrritation fibroma is one of the most frequent occurrences in benign soft tissue growth of the oral cavity. Chronic irritation and trauma are often identified as the causative factors. Recently, we experienced an unusual case of multiple irritation fibromas that occurred in the suture points after dorsum linguae biopsy. To the best of our knowledge, it has not been reported. Hence, the rare case was described and several possible causes were discussed.
