Solitary eccrine syringofibroadenoma with nail involvement: A rare entity
Eccrine syringofibroadenoma (ESFA) is a rare, benign tumor of eccrine sweat gland origin that usually presents as a nodule on the extremities of an elderly person. It can also present as an ulcerative plaque, verrucous lesion, papular or nodular lesion or as palmoplantar keratoderma. Although the cl...

description | Eccrine syringofibroadenoma (ESFA) is a rare, benign tumor of eccrine sweat gland origin that usually presents as a nodule on the extremities of an elderly person. It can also present as an ulcerative plaque, verrucous lesion, papular or nodular lesion or as palmoplantar keratoderma. Although the clinical features are variable, histology is characteristic in the form of anastomosing strands, cords and columns of epithelial cells embedded in a fibrovascular stroma. We report the case of a 62-year-old male with a nodular lesion on the extremity that caused secondary involvement of the nail in the form of complete nail dystrophy. The histology showed features consistent with ESFA. Nail involvement by ESFA is a rare presentation and is rarely described in the literature. |
