Abstract:
Eccrine poroma is a fairly common solitary tumor of the eccrine duct cells. In about two thirds of the cases, it is found on the sole or the sides of the foot, occurring next in frequency on the hands and fingers. It has also been observed in many areas of the skin, such as the neck, chest, and nose. We report two cases of eccrine poroma arising on the knee and the scalp respectively.
