Abstract
Myopericytoma is an uncommon type of soft tissue tumor characterized by a well-circumscribed, non-encapsulated nodular proliferation with thin-walled blood vessels and a concentric, perivascular arrangement of ovoid spindle-shaped myopericytes. Clinically, most myopericytomas present as painless, slow-growing tumors in superficial or deep soft tissues. They most commonly affect the lower extremities and are rarely found in the fingers. This report describes the case of a patient with a myopericytoma located on the left fifth finger.
