Abstract:

Syringoma is a benign adnexal tumor originated from the intraepidermal portion of eccrine sweat duct. They commonly present as soft, flesh colored to slightly yellow dermal papules on the lower eyelids of healthy individuals. It usually occurs in the peri-pubertal period. There are a few reports of its widespread distribution as eruptive syringoma in the literature. Treatment of this benign condition is cosmetic only in both localized and eruptive form. Herein, a case of a 29 year old female with one year history of eruptive syringomas is presented.

Coexistence of eruptive syringoma and bilateral nipple vitiligo: Could there be a common immunopathogenesis?

The rarely seen eruptive syringoma (ES) is characterized by small, skin-colored, papules. Lesions are benign; however, treatment is often unsuccessful. Recent studies have a suggested role of the autoimmune response, rather than reactive proliferation of acrosyringium in the pathogenesis of ES. There are reports in the literature of an association between syringoma and diabetes mellitus as well...
