Angioleiomyomas are benign tumors originating in the vascular smooth muscles. The tumor typically presents as a painful, solitary, small subcutaneous nodule. Herein, we have described a case report of chronic leg pain due to angioleiomyoma. We outline the clinical, radiological and histopathological features of this rare diagnosis for a painful nodule of extremity. Although rare, angioleiomyoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of chronic leg pain.

Recurrent pneumonia in adults is often the result of abnormalities such as endobronchial obstruction, aspiration, or immunodeficiency. Rarely, congenital or developmental pulmonary anomalies may result in recurrent pneumonia in adult patients; bronchopulmonary sequestration is one such anomaly. The pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary sequestration remains incompletely understood. The entity has two anatomic types, each differing significantly in presentation and treatment approach. When recurrent pneumonia is encountered, particularly in a young adult, the possibility of bronchopulmonary sequestration should be considered.
