We report two cases of angioleiomyoma of the foot.Case-1: A seventy three year old woman suffered from swelling of her left lateral malleolus. X-ray showed calcification in the tumor. Resection of the tumor was performed. Pathological diagnosis was angioleiomyoma.Case-2: A sixty two year old woman suffered from swelling and pain of her right planta pedis. X-ray showed no phlebolith or calcification in the tumor. Resection of the tumor was performed. Pathological diagnosis was angioleiomyoma.We consider that if we examine a patient with a painful tumor, we should consider the diagnosis of angioleiomyoma.
