<unk><unk>  arises from modified smooth muscle cells (or pericytes) of the<unk>  body (previously called as<unk>  cells). The<unk>  body is a neuromyoarterial plexus in the dermis of skin that is normally involved in thermoregulation. The gene involved in the pathogenesis of familial glomangioma is the<unk> in (GLMN) gene. On gross pathology, small (usually less than 1 cm), bluish or whitish, well circumscribed, solitary nodules are characteristic findings of<unk><unk> . On microscopic histopathological analysis, branching vascular channels and aggregates of specialized<unk>  cells are characteristic findings of<unk><unk> .
