Abstract:
Syringomas are relatively common benign adnexal tumors that are usually located on the lower eyelids, although affecting other areas, including cheek, axillae, abdomen and vulva. Acral syringomas, located on distal extremities are vary rare and there is only one case reported in Korea. We report a case of a healthy 21-year-old woman with multiple, reddish brown syringomas located on both forearms and the dorsa of hands. The histologic findings were typical of syringomas.
