Zusammenfassung:Acral angioosteoma cutis is a rare and benign cutaneous lesion clinically characterized by an exophytic growth resembling pyogenic granuloma on the acral skin; first described in 2006.

Here, we present a case of acral angioosteoma cutis in a 34-year-old man to increase awareness regarding this rare condition.
