Soft TissueTumours of Uncertain Differentiation               

Notochordal Tumour - Chordoma

                        
Congenital smooth muscle hamartoma presents as flesh coloured or variably  pigmented plaque or macule, upto 10 cm in diameter. Thick hairs are prominent in the affected areas.

The tumour is usually located in infants.

The common sites include extremities or trunks.

Histologically,  there are scattered bundles of smooth muscle fibres in the dermis orientated in various directions.
Thin retraction space is often present around muscle bundles .
Nerve bundles are also noted.
The overlying epidermis may show elongation of the rete ridges and hyperpigmentation of the basal layer.
