Spiradenocylindroma is an extremely rare entity composed by two distinct neoplasms in one lesion: spiradenoma and cylindroma. It may arose solitary or multiple, sporadic or familial and often affect the scalp. Surgical removal is curative and histopathological examination is mandatory for diagnosis.
The aim of this article is to define the clinical features of spiradenocylindroma and its importance in the differential diagnoses of head and neck tumors.
A 58 years-old female with a preauricolar painless, tender nodule presented to our attention. The patient under-went ultrasonography and MRI, which showed a non-specific cystic lesion. Surgery was performed and histopathological examination revealed a spiradenocylindroma. A 3-years disease-free follow-up was achieved.
Spiradenocylindroma is often misdiagnosed and, in our study, we highlight its role in the differential diagnoses of head and neck masses.
Spiradenocylindroma 是一种极为罕见的病变，由一个病灶中的两种不同肿瘤组成：Spiradenoma 和 cylindroma。它可以单发或多发，散发或家族性，常发生于头皮。手术切除是治愈性的，组织病理学检查对于诊断是必需的。
本文旨在定义 Spiradenocylindroma 的临床特征及其在头颈部肿瘤鉴别诊断中的重要性。
一名 58 岁女性，出现耳前无痛性、压痛性结节，前来就诊。患者接受了超声和 MRI 检查，结果显示为非特异性囊性病变。手术进行，组织病理学检查显示为 Spiradenocylindroma。患者获得了 3 年无病生存随访。
Spiradenocylindroma 常被误诊，在本研究中，我们强调了其在头颈部肿块鉴别诊断中的作用。
