case_images: FNAC from nodular cystic swellings over the interphalangeal joint (knuckle) and bilateral gluteal swelling revealed similar findings comprising of predominantly foamy macrophages in clusters as well as scattered singly, multinucleated giant cells, few benign mesenchymal cells, and occasional inflammatory cells in a hemorrhagic background [Figure 2a and b]. Skin biopsy from lateral ankle lesion showed pan dermal infiltration by foamy macrophages [Figure 2c].
