“…The other theory is that undifferentiated mesenchymal cells undergo metaplastic differentiation in the setting of inflammation or hypoxia. In previous case reports, the investigators believed that the vascular proliferation in both AAOC and PG were induced by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) 2, 3, 4. Endothelial cells produce signals such as bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to induce metaplastic differentiation and ectopic bone formation 9 .…”

“…Since the introduction of the term in 2006 for a series of 11 cases, at least 3 additional cases have been reported under this name. [36][37][38] These lesions occur on any acral site and are often periungual. They clinically and microscopically resemble pyogenic granuloma, with many having ulceration and epidermal collarettes.…”

This group of biologically diverse entities is united by topographic localization to the hands and feet. Categorizing tumors by body site narrows the differential into a short list of possibilities that can facilitate accurate and rapid diagnosis. The goal of this review is to provide a practical approach to soft tissue tumors of acral locations for clinicians, pathologists, and researchers alike. What ensues in the following text is that tight coupling of the clinical picture and histopathologic findings should produce the correct diagnosis, or at least an abbreviated differential. The salient clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular features are presented alongside current treatment recommendations for each entity.
