Benign cutaneous vascular and cutaneous neoplasms arising from muscle or adipose tissue are rare. Their definition and classification are still controversially discussed. Histopathological and immunohistochemical studies, together with the new genetic tests, contribute significantly to the correct description of the various benign neoplasms of cutaneous origin. Clarifying whether a lesion is benign is fundamental for prognosis and therapeutic management. In most cases, surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Dermatologists should be familiar with the classifications of the most common benign cutaneous neoplasms of vascular, muscular, and adipose tissue and be able to recommend the procedures currently used for an accurate diagnosis. Ensuring that a lesion is benign and a good surgical outcome are essential for the patient.
