Abstract
Eccrine syringofibroadenoma is a rare benign adnexal neoplasm derived from cells of the acrosyringium of eccrine sweat glands. ESFA usually manifests as a solitary nodule on the extremities of elderly patients, but it may also present as papules, nodules or plaques. Its clinical appearance is nonspecific and malignant neoplasms should be considered in the differential diagnosis. However, histopathological findings are typical. The main treatment is surgical excision. In order to illustrate a typical presentation of the tumor, we report a case of solitary eccrine syringofibroadenoma, including the surgical treatment used and its result.Entities:
