Eccrine spiroadenoma arises from adnexal tissue of skin and is usually benign, slow growing and may remain static for decades [1]. Dabska et al. first defined the term malignant eccrine spiroadenoma (MES) in 1972, since then around 100 cases of MES have been found (Alejandra de Andrés Gómez. Malignant eccrine breast spiroadenoma. A case report and literature review [2]). Its very rare kind of tumor can arise either from transformation in benign lesion or can arise de novo. Here we are reporting a case of malignant spiroadenoma arising from transformation of benign lesion, its pathology and treatment.

Characterized by slow growth, PCMC often appears on the head and neck of older patients. Although it rarely metastasizes, its high recurrence rate leads to significant morbidity.

Pemetrexed is a chemotherapeutic, antimetabolite agent that has been used in oncology to treat diseases such as metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma. Pemetrexed use may result in pseudocellulitis, which presents as poorly demarcated patches or plaques with erythema, edema, warmth, and tenderness. These lesions can present unilaterally or bilaterally on the lower extremities.

Digital papillary adenocarcinoma is a rare cutaneous tumor of eccrine origin that often presents as a papule or nodule on the dorsal aspect of a finger. It is challenging to diagnose because of its rarity, its benign appearance, and the lack of specific clinical or histological features. Excision is recommended, given the malignant nature and variable recurrence rates with metastases well documented in the literature.
