Abstract:
Malignant eccrine spiradenoma is very rare neoplasm of cutaneous adnexal origin, arising from previously benign eccrine spiradenoma. We present an additional case of malignant eccrine spiradenoma in abdomen of 56-year-old female patient. The mass was stable for 25 years and recently increased in size and became strikingly painful and tender. The excised mass showed typical findings of eccrine spiradenoma 8 its malignancy. There was no evidence of local invasion & distant metastasis. We resected the tumor mass with 3 cm safty margin and have followed up the patient.
