Sumario:Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a rare benign hamartomatous adnexal tumor of the apocrine or eccrine sweat glands. Most patients present a solitary lesion in the head and neck region.

This case illustrates the atypical location of this rare disease and adds to the differential diagnosis of lesions on the vulva.
