Abstract
Papillary Eccrine Adenoma is an infrequent benign tumor of the sweat glands. Since its description in 1977, few cases have been documented. Clinically it presents as a dermal nodule, located on the limbs. We report a case in a 33-year-old man, who consulted for presenting an asymptomatic nodule on left foot, with 1 year of evolution. With diagnostic impression of lipoma, the resection of the lesion was performed. The histopathological study identified a circumscribed dermal tumor, formed by dilated eccrine ducts with intraluminal papillae in a fibrous stroma. The diagnosis of papillary eccrine adenoma was made, and its differential diagnoses are discussed.
