Chondroid syringoma (CS) is an uncommon benign adnexal tumor of the skin with eccrine and apocrine origin, which usually involves the head and neck region. The presentation of CS in other areas of the body is rare. A 45-year-old male patient presented to the dermatology clinic with a chief complaint of a painless, slow-growing mass on his left forearm, which gradually developed over the course of 2 years. A solitary, firm, purple, mobile, non-tender nodule was located in the distal part of left dorsal forearm, which was 1.8 cm in diameter. The tumor was surgically excised and sent for the histopathological evaluation. Results of biopsy and hematoxylin and eosin staining confirmed the diagnosis of CS and showed no evidence of malignancy. Although CS is an uncommon tumor in uppr limb region, it should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses, when dealing with tumors of this area.
软骨样汗腺腺瘤(CS)是一种罕见的起源于小汗腺和大汗腺的皮肤良性附属器肿瘤,通常累及头颈部区域。CS在身体其他部位的表现罕见。一名45岁男性患者因左前臂无痛性、生长缓慢的肿块为主诉就诊于皮肤科诊所,该肿块在2年病程中逐渐形成。在左前臂背侧远端有一个孤立、质地硬、紫色、可活动、无压痛的结节,直径为1.8厘米。肿瘤经手术切除并送去做组织病理学评估。活检及苏木精-伊红染色结果确诊为CS,且未显示恶性证据。尽管CS在上肢区域是一种罕见肿瘤,但在处理该区域肿瘤时,应将其视为鉴别诊断之一。
