Abstract

We report a case of multiple eccrine spiradenomas that arose in adulthood along a patient's arm and continued to the midline of the patient's chest across multiple dermatomes. This is one of a handful of such cases, which have been reported as linear, nevoid, or zosteriform eccrine spiradenomas. We believe this distribution is best described as Blaschkoid rather than zosteriform or linear because these lesions follow the lines of Blaschko rather than those of a single dermatome.

Mixed tubulopapillary hidradenoma and syringocystadenoma papilliferum occurring as a verrucous tumor.

Tubulopapillary hidradenoma (TPH)1 is a term proposed to describe morphological dermal ductal tumors with both eccrine and apocrine differentiation. The term TPH encompasses a spectrum of lesions that includes tubular apocrine adenoma (TAA) and papillary eccrine adenoma (PEA):2 PEA and TAA can be indistinguishable both clinically and histologically. We described a case of TPH with both prominent eccrine and apocrine differentiation combined with syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) over the distal extremity. This rarely encountered dermatopathological phenomenon is the sixth reported case from the literature in which PEA or TAA and SCAP were present in the same lesion.3-7 Furthermore, the tumor had a warty surface, which is histologically consistent with a typical viral verruca. Although PCR and DNA probe hybridization for human papilloma virus (HPV) types 2, 6/11, 16 and 18 failed to reveal positive results, the location and clinicopathologic correlation convinced us that superimposed HPV could not be excluded.

Syringocystadenoma papilliferum contiguous to a verrucous cyst.

BACKGROUND: Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) and verrucous cyst are two uncommon benign tumors. The simultaneous occurrence of the two lesions has not been reported before. METHODS: We report four cases of the simultaneous occurrence of the two rare lesions as so-called collision lesions with a review of the literature. CONCLUSION: The relationship of SCAP with viral infection needs further investigation.
