Abstract:
Ansan, KoreaClear cell syringoma is a rare variant type of syringoma. It has two noteworthy features: histologic preponderance of clear cells and frequent coexistence with diabetes mellitus. There is no difference between clear cell syringoma and typical syringoma with respect to age, sex, and clinical features. We report a 48-year-old woman who presented with clear cell syringoma concomitant with diabetes mellitus. Histopathologic findings showed numerous various-sized, well-defined tumor cell nests composed largely of clear cells.
