Cylindromas are very rare and benign adnexal tumours of the skin. Very few reports of these benign tumours are reported in the literature. Dermal cylindromas are characterised as a benign neoplasm of the eccrine sweat glands. The most frequent location is the head and neck. Multiple occurrences are often linked to the Brooke-Spiegler syndrome. The Brooke-Spiegler syndrome is inherited as an irregular autosomal dominant trait. A malignant transformation to an adenoid cystic carcinoma is also described in the literature. The leading treatment modality described in the literature is the complete surgical removal of the lesions. Here, a systematic review of the literature is presented with two rare cases of cylindromas.
圆柱瘤是一种非常罕见且良性的皮肤附属器肿瘤。文献中很少有关于这些良性肿瘤的报道。皮肤圆柱瘤被认为是一种良性的外分泌汗腺肿瘤。最常见的部位是头部和颈部。多发性病变常与布鲁克-斯皮格尔综合征有关。布鲁克-斯皮格尔综合征作为一种不规则的常染色体显性遗传特征遗传。文献中还描述了向腺样囊性癌的恶性转化。文献中描述的主要治疗方式是彻底切除病变。这里报告了两例罕见的圆柱瘤病例，并进行了系统的文献复习。
