Background Eruptive syringomas is a rare variant of syringoma, which is a benign adenoma differentiated from the terminal ducts of the eccrine glands. Nowadays, it's widely valued because of obvious skin lesions, large scope of influence, and high misdiagnosis rate. Objectives We aim to explore the clinical features of eruptive syringomas and the current research progress. Materials and Methods We firstly summarized the clinical features of 90 cases of eruptive syringomas. Then, the chi‐square test was used to analyze the relationship between the onset site of eruptive syringomas and age, as well as gender. Finally, we briefly reviewed the previous literature. Results During 12 years, 90 cases of eruptive syringomas were diagnosed in our hospital, including 28 males (31.1%) and 62 females (68.9%). The average diagnosed age was 28.8. Patients from 20 to 40 years old is 63 (70%), which is the most. 60 (66.7%) patients had the course for more than 1 year. Among onset sites, the neck, chest, and abdomen were in the top three. The chi‐square test showed that there were no significant differences in the onset sites of patients aged ≤ 20 and >20 years old (p‐value = 0.181), as well as male and female (p‐value = 0.363). Conclusion We found that more female than male was affected, and the most common onset sites were the neck, chest, and abdomen. Neither age nor gender was significantly associated with onset site distribution. Our study provides some data support for the research of eruptive syringomas.

<p>Syringoma is a benign tumor of eccrine origin which arises from eccrine ducts. Syringomas are most commonly found on the eyelids in middle-aged women. Traditional treatments include surgical excision, curettage, peelings, dermabrasion and laser. We report on the successful use of fractional laser on periocular syringomas. A 53-year-old female patient with multiple periorbital syringomas underwent three sessions of fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser. Settings of 20 watts of power, 600 μm of spacing, 800 μs of dwell, time stack 2 (Smartxide DOT, DEKA, Florence, Italy) were used. The sessions were performed monthly. Significant improvement of the esthetic appearance was observed after three sessions. There was a decrease of visible syringomas associated with an evident improvement of the skin texture, skin quality and flaccidity. No side effects were observed. We suggested continuing the treatment but the patient was satisfied with the current aspect and result. In conclusion, fractional CO2 laser represents an effective treatment option for the treatment of periorbital syringomas.</p>

“…Another study showed excellent cosmetic results in 11 patients who were treated with multiple-drilling methods using a CO 2 laser without complications such as scarring, erythema, or pigmentary changes ( Park et al, 2007 ). Another prospective study using a pinhole method with an ablative 10,600 nm CO 2 laser on the periorbital skin showed minimal improvement (0 to 25%) in 4 patients (13.8%), moderate improvement (26-50%) in 8 patients (27.6%), marked improvement (51-75%) in 10 patients (34.5%), and near-total resolution (> 75%) in 7 patients (24.1%; Lee et al, 2015c ). Patients with vulvar syringomas have also been successfully treated with a CO 2 laser ( Huang et al, 2003 ).…”

Laser treatment is a relatively new and increasingly popular modality for the treatment of many dermatologic conditions. A number of conditions that predominantly occur in women and that have a paucity of effective treatments include rosacea, connective tissue disease, melasma, nevus of Ota, lichen sclerosus (LS), notalgia paresthetica and macular amyloidosis, and syringomas. Laser therapy is an important option for the treatment of patients with these conditions. This article will review the body of literature that exists for the laser treatment of women with these medical conditions.
