“…The original case report of eccrine poromatosis (12) described a 65-year-old Caucasian man who presented with multiple lesions on the pahns and soles, with a total of 12 lesions histologically consistent with eccrine poroma. Unfortunately, the patient's medical history was not described.…”

Eccrine poroma frequently occurs as a solitary tumour, and only a few reports have described the occurrence of multiple lesions. Multiple eccrine poromas, or eccrine poromatosis, may occur in patients who have undergone radiotherapy and/or polychemotherapy. We report here four cases of multiple eccrine poromas in patients who were either undergoing, or had undergone, intensive chemotherapy (from 6 months to 16 years prior to onset). Three patients had non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and one had malignant fibrous histiocytosis. The number of lesions varied from 3 to > 20 in each patient, and all the lesions occurred on non-irradiated skin. The histopathological features were consistent with those of eccrine poroma, Pinkus type. In addition to radiation therapy, intensive chemotherapy may play a role in the pathogenesis of multiple eccrine poromas even many years after treatment.

“…According to the literature, complete local excision leads to complete cure of group 1 lesions [3,9,12,13,21,23], Al though a long-term follow-up is lacking, complete local excision, controlled at regu lar intervals, appears an adequate manage ment of group 2 lesions. The malignant le sions of group 3 are locally destructive, ex hibit lymphogenic metastascs and epidermotropic dissemination.…”

The Histology of Eccrine Poromas: A Study of 14 Cases

A histological study of 14 eccrine poromas in 14 different patients was conducted and the results correlated with the clinical data. Histologically, an eccrine poroma is an easily recognizable epithelial skin tumor. Three morphological variants can be identified: a benign, a premalignant or dysplastic, and an invasive, malignant form. These tumors hardly have a typical clinical appearance. Symptoms such as bleeding, pain and itching are suggestive of a possible malignant transformation. There seems to be a predilection for localization on the limbs and the head. Most of the lesions occur in patients above the age of 60. It is noteworthy that these tumors, at least those of the face, occur on actinically damaged areas.
