Chondroid syringoma, or pleomorphic adenoma of the skin, is a rare, benign skin adnexal tumor. It is usually exhibited as a slowly growing intradermal or subcutaneous nodule, typically located in the head and neck region. Because of the unremarkable clinical symptomatology of this rare tumor, the diagnosis is exclusively made retrospectively based on histological confirmation of the surgically excised tumor. We present a rare case of a chondroid syringoma located in the left medial canthus of a 58-year-old man. The patient had no symptoms and decided to excise it for cosmetic reasons only. Local excision with a macroscopic wide cuff of normal tissue was done, without destroying the aesthetic and functional structures, since the defect was restored by a finger flap. One year postoperatively, the patient has remained disease-free. Chondroid syringoma usually appears in the face but the location in the medial canthus is not mentioned in the literature for the last twenty years.
软骨样汗腺腺瘤，即皮肤多形性腺瘤，是一种罕见的良性皮肤附属器肿瘤。它通常表现为缓慢生长的皮内或皮下结节，典型地位于头颈部区域。由于这种罕见肿瘤的临床症状不明显，诊断完全是在手术切除肿瘤经组织学证实后进行回顾性诊断。我们报告一例罕见的位于一名58岁男性左内眦的软骨样汗腺腺瘤病例。患者无症状，仅因美容原因决定切除。在不破坏美学和功能结构的情况下，进行了带有肉眼可见的正常组织宽边缘的局部切除，因为缺损通过指状皮瓣修复。术后一年，患者无疾病复发。软骨样汗腺腺瘤通常出现在面部，但在过去二十年的文献中未提及在内眦的位置。
