Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour

            
Piloleiomyomas are benign smooth muscle tumors arising from the arrectores pilorum muscles in the skin.
The tumour usually presents as multiple reddish brown nodule. These are usually painful or sensitive to touch and cold.

Solitary lesions are rare and are usually larger than the multiple form (upto 2cm or more  in diameter).
These are usually noted in the second and third decade of life.
Common sites include face, back, and the extremities.

Microscopic features:

These are circumscribed non encapsulated tumours characterized by  bundles and and fascicles of smooth muscle cells.
Tumour cells are characterized by eosinophilic cytoplasm with  vesicular nuclei. 
Rarely, occasional  mitotic figures may be  present.
Immunohistochemistry reveals that the tumour cells are positive for actin and desmin.
