Published: June 2006

Eccrine acrospiroma is a tumor originating from the sweat glands. The computed tomography findings of eccrine acrospiroma in the right inguinal area are presented. In our case, the tumor was seen as a well-defined and ovoid-shaped cystic mass with an internal enhancing solid portion and containing calcifications. Eccrine acrospiroma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a subcutaneous cystic mass with an internal solid nodule.

Article Synopsis
  • Poromas are benign skin tumors originating from sweat glands, often appearing as pink or red bumps primarily on hairless areas like palms and soles.
  • A 70-year-old woman had a poroma on her abdomen that showed some histological features similar to another neoplasm, syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP), but lacked certain defining characteristics of SCAP.
  • This case, showing rare SCAP-like features within a poroma, emphasizes the need for careful diagnosis as it may simply reflect a variation of poromas, rather than representing two different tumors.
