“…An uncommon variant is eruptive syringoma, a clinical condition characterised by multiple yellow-brown-coloured, firm papules, with no specific site predilection in young adults. 27 The pathogenesis of eruptive syringoma is controversial, and it has been suggested that it represents a reactive eccrine gland ductal proliferation following cutaneous inflammatory conditions. 28 There is also an increased incidence of eruptive syringoma in patients with Down's syndrome, and, rarely, syringomas can occur in familial form.…”

Skin adnexal neoplasms—part 2: An approach to tumours of cutaneous sweat glands

2006

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Tumours of cutaneous sweat glands are uncommon, with a wide histological spectrum, complex classification and many different terms often used to describe the same tumour. Furthermore, many eccrine/apocrine lesions coexist within hamartomas or within lesions with composite/mixed differentiation. In addition to the eccrine and apocrine glands, two other skin sweat glands have recently been described: the apoeccrine and the mammary-like glands of the anogenital area. In this review (the second of two articles on skin adnexal neoplasms), common as well as important benign and malignant lesions of cutaneous sweat glands are described, and a summary for differentiating primary adnexal neoplasms from metastatic carcinoma is outlined, striving to maintain a common and acceptable terminology in this complex subject. Composite/mixed adnexal tumours are also discussed briefly.

“…Although these tumors are rare, they can be locally aggressive and tend to have a poor prognosis 112 . Rates of metastases remain unknown, although a number of case reports describe lung, myocardial, and most commonly lymph node metastases 113–116 . These tumors tend to have a high rate of local recurrence 116,117 …”

Soft Tissue Tumors of the Hand. 2. Malignant

Soft tissue tumors of the hand arise from skin, subcutaneous tissue, tendons, nerve, and blood vessels. Many of these lesions occur on other parts of the body; however, the hand remains a unique site because these tumors have symptoms, appearances, treatments, and prognoses that may be quite different than when on other parts of the body. Their characteristics and the severity of symptoms vary markedly depending on the exact location, size, and type of tumor-and many of these tumors can have multiple forms of presentation. Two articles are intended to provide an overview of benign (previous article) and malignant tumors (this article) of the hand. The rarer and more deleterious tumors are discussed in detail while the common tumors and epidermal lesions with which practitioners are familiar are briefly overviewed. At the completion of these review articles, participants should be able to identify and diagnose various benign and malignant hand tumors as well as understand the accepted current treatment of these growths.

“…The prognosis of hidradenoma is often good but malignant transformation into hidradenosarcoma is possible, this risk is increased after the age of 50 years. The malignant form described by KEASBEY and HADLEY in 1954 [9] has an important local aggressiveness, with lymph node and bone metastases but can also be cutaneous, hepatic and pulmonary metastases to [10]. This malignant form often develops from a benign lesion but a de novo malignant hidradenoma is possible.…”

Hidradenoma is a rare benign tumor that develops of the eccrine sweat glands. We report here two cases of benign giant hidradenoma with a clear cell variant in one case and nodular in the other. The tumor was localized on the forearm in a patient aged 6 years and in the foot in a 14-year-old child. An excisional biopsy was performed in both patients. Evolution was marked by a good outcome without recurrence. We try through this paper to review an uncommon tumor which his eccrine origin is controversial and which biological behavior was badly known.
