Zusammenfassung:A 16‐year‐old girl with no significant past medical history presented for evaluation of a right knee cutaneous nodule. The nodule first presented 3 years prior as a thin, asymptomatic papule. Over‐the‐counter cryotherapy and topical witch hazel offered no improvement. The papule doubled in size over the first year followed by slow, continued growth resulting in a stable, asymptomatic nodule. The patient denied additional cutaneous lesions or preceding history of trauma.
