- Abstract: Chondroid syringoma is an uncommon, benign neoplasm of sweat gland origin. It clinically presents as a slowly-growing intradermal or subcutaneous nodule, and is usually observed on the head and neck of middle-aged to elderly people. Histologically, two types of chondroid syringoma can be recognized: one common type has tubular and cystic lumina and the other extremely rare type has small tubular lumina. We herein report a rare case of chondroid syringoma with small tubular lumina.
