Abstract:
Eccrine poromas mainly involve the non-hairy surfaces of the skin, however, have also been found on hair bearing areas. Pigmentation in the tumor cells is rare but has been mentioned in a few papers. The following case documents an example of a pigmented eccrine poroma which occurred in an unusual location; the posterior scalp.
