AI Article Synopsis

  • Spiradenoma is a rare, non-cancerous tumor that originates from sweat glands, usually appearing as a painful blue nodule, mostly seen in young adults but this case involves a child.
  • The report discusses a case of a spiradenoma that reoccurred on the arm, highlighting the uniqueness of presenting it in a pediatric patient.
  • Early diagnosis via excisional biopsy is essential to manage the tumor and prevent future complications, and more genetic research is necessary for better understanding of this unusual condition.

Article Abstract

Spiradenoma is a rare benign adnexal tumor arising from eccrine sweat glands. It presents as a painful bluish nodular lesion which occurs rarely over the arms. This case report adds to a case where a recurrent spiradenoma occurred over the arm. The majority of reported cases involve young adults, making our pediatric case particularly unusual. Early diagnosis through excisional biopsy is crucial for optimal management and prevention of recurrence or malignant transformation. Eccrine spiradenoma is an uncommon tumor that should be kept in mind in case of a patient with a painful nodule. More genetic studies are needed for the best understanding of this rare tumor entity.

Giant vascular eccrine spiradenoma (GVES) is a dermal adnexal neoplasm, representing a malignant variant of eccrine spiradenoma. We report a case of giant scapular vascular eccrine spiroadenomas. This case is characterized by its large size and location in a region with sparse vascular distribution, along with a favorable postoperative prognosis, which merits reporting.

Spiradenoma is an uncommon benign neoplasm originating from eccrine sweat glands, typically characterized by a solitary tumor. Its diagnosis poses a challenge due to its morphological similarity to other solitary swellings. This report highlights the case of a 28-year-old male who presented with a solitary swelling on his right lower back.

Objective: The aim of this study was to systematically investigate the ultrasonographic features of nodular hidradenoma (NH).

Methods: A retrospective analysis was used to systematically summarize the ultrasonographic data of 27 patients diagnosed with NH by surgical pathology, including 13 eccrine nodular hidradenomas (ENH) and 14 apocrine nodular hidradenomas (ANH).

Results: All instances of NH presented as solitary, well-defined lesions that infiltrated the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer, characterized by a heterogeneous hypoechoic internal solid component on ultrasound imaging.
