“…It was defined by Billroth in 1859 and histopathologically it has similar properties of benign mix tumour of salivary glands. In 1961 Hirsch and Helwing defined this tumour as chondroid syringoma and it is characterised with the existence of sweat gland elements in stroma similar to cartilage [4,6,7,9].…”

“…It generally fixes on the skin whereas it does not fix on deep subcutaneous tissues [4]. Chondroid syringoma is generally seen in head and neck region of middle age and old men [3,4,6,9]. The tumour in head and neck region frequently affects nose, cheek and upper lip, however at the same time scalp, forehead, brow and upper eyelid can be affected [4].…”

“…There are multiple treatment methods; electrodessication, dermabrasion, and vaporization with argon or Co2 laser, usual first-line treatment of the tumor is total excision [3,6,10]. Because of malign transformation potential, total excision is the preferred treatment method for benign chondroid syringomas [1].…”

ÖZETChondroid syringoma miks kutanöz tümör olarak adlandırılan benign karakterde bir cilt tümörüdür. Chondroid syringoma klinik olarak yavaş büyüyen, ağrısız, ülsere olmayan, subkutanöz veya intrakutanöz 0,5 ila 3 cm arasında boyutlara sahip nodul şeklinde görülür. Chondroid syringoma genellikle baş boyun bölgesinde orta yaş ve yaşlı erkeklerde görülür. Nadir olarak gövde, sırt, ekstremiteler ve genital organları tutabilir. Chondroid syringoma benign lezyon olmasına rağmen malign ve atipik formlarda rapor edilmiştir. Malign tümörlerin en önemli klinik bulgusu kısa zamanda hızlı büyüyen kitle olmasıdır. Malign chondroid syringoma genellikle genç bayan hastalarda, gövde ve ekstremite lokalizasyonlarında görülür. Malign dönüşüm potansiyelinden dolayı benign chondroid syringomalara total eksizyon tercih edilen tedavi şeklidir. Nadir lezyonlar olmasına rağmen, baş boyun bölgesi başta olmak üzere gövde ve ekstremitelerdeki subkutanöz nodül-lerde chondroid syringoma akla getirilmelidir. Bu çalışma-da, genç bayan hastada ekstremite yerleşimli benign bir chondroid syringoma olgusu sunulmuştur. Anahtar kelimeler: Chondroid syringoma, selim, ekstremite ABSTRACTChondroid syringoma is a skin tumour with benign character that is named as mixcutaneous tumour. Chondroid syringoma grows slowly without pain and ulcer and is seen as subcutaneous or intracutaneous in 0.5-3 cm size. Chondroid syringoma is generally seen in middle age and old men in head and neck region. It can rarely trunk, back, extremities and genital organs. Since chondroid syringoma is a benign lesion, it was reported in malign and atypic forms. The most important clinical finding of malign tumours is a rapid growing bulk. Malign chondroid syringoma is generally seen in young female patients in body and extremity localizations. Because of malign transformation, potential, total excision is the preferred treatment in benign chondroid syringomas. Despite being rare lesions, in subcutaneous nodules in body and extremities, particularly in head and neck region, chondroid syringoma should be thought. In this study, benign a case chondroid syringoma locating in extremity of young female patient was presented. J Clin Exp Invest 2014; 5 (3): 441-443

Chondroid syringoma (CS) is a rare benign adnexal tumor of the skin with a resemblance to pleomorphic adenoma of salivary gland, most commonly involving the head and neck region. In the present literature, reports of the cytologic appearance of CS are scarce as it is rarely encountered by fine needle aspiration (FNA). A 67-year-old woman presented with a 1 year history of a 1 cm subcutaneous nodule in the right axilla. FNA biopsy was performed revealing an epithelial-mesenchymal biphasic neoplasm suggesting CS. Surgical excision confirmed the diagnosis and demonstrated extensive ossification, an extremely rare feature, with only seven reported cases, all located on the head. CS is a rare benign adnexal tumor of the skin, often overlooked due to its unremarkable clinical presentation. FNA is a reliable tool for the diagnosis of CS and helps guide optimal surgical management.
