A Rare Supraorbital Ridge Mass: The Chondroid Syringoma with Adipocytic Metaplasia.

Chondroid syringoma (CS) is a rare benign skin adnexal neoplasm. Its incidence is very low among all primary skin tumors. Diagnosing it clinically can be difficult as it closely resembles other benign salivary or adnexal neoplasms. Until now, only a few cases have been reported from the periorbital region. Clinically, it can be mistaken for epidermal cysts, but ectopic salivary glands are a close differential diagnosis. To diagnose it, a complete removal is usually required, followed by a histopathological examination. We present a unique case of a 45-year-old female patient with a CS in her right supraorbital ridge and review the pertinent literature.
