Eccrine spiradenoma of nose
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
Introduction and importance:
Eccrine spiradenoma is a benign tumor of the eccrine sweat glands, preferentially affecting the scalp, face and trunk. Few cases are described in the literature, it is a fairly rare pathology.
Presentation of the case:
We present the case of a 64-year-old man who consulted for an ulcerative and nodular lesion of the left side of the nose for 5 years. He was treated in our department (excision and reconstruction). Pathological examination revealed a benign eccrine spiradenoma.
Clinical discussion:
Eccrine spiradenoma is a relatively rare benign adnexal tumor. His diagnosis is based on histopathological examination. His treatment is surgical. In case of incomplete excision of the tumor, the risk of recurrence is always possible. The risk of malignant transformation exists, particularly for tumors with a long duration of evolution.
Conclusion:
Benign eccrine spiradenoma is a rare adnexal tumor, but it is important to know about it. The main risk is malignant transformation.
