Abstract:
Syringoid eccrine carcinoma is a rare adnexal tumor of eccrine origin, and has metastatic potential and high recurrence rate following conventional surgical excision. Mohs micrographic surgery has been commonly used for various malignant skin cancers to minimize the defect after surgery, and to decrease the recurrence rate. We present a case of syringoid eccrine carcinoma successfully treated by Mohs micrographic surgery.
