## TL;DR

This paper presents a rare case of angioleiomyoma in the palm and highlights its specific MRI characteristics for better diagnosis.

## Contribution

The paper identifies specific MRI features that can help diagnose angioleiomyoma in the palm.

## Key findings

- Angioleiomyoma appears as a peripheral T1- and T2-hypointense rim on MRI.
- The tumor is associated with tortuous vascular structures and a dark reticular sign on imaging.

## Abstract

Teaching point: Angioleiomyoma is defined on MR by a peripheral T1- and T2-hypointense rim, adjacent tortuous vascular structures, and a dark reticular sign.
