A

1-year-old boy presents with a solitary lesion on his right thigh. It first appeared when he was 1 month of age and it has persisted since that time. The lesion is usually asymptomatic, but becomes swollen and itchy when rubbed or traumatized. Skin examination reveals a soft erythematous to brownish papule, 1 cm in length, on the lateral aspect of the upper right thigh. The patient is otherwise healthy and does not have a family history of a similar condition.

The most likely diagnosis is

1. Congenital melanocytic nevus 2. Solitary mastocytoma

3. Insect bite 4. Epidermal cyst
