A Case of Eccrine Spiradenoma / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Eccrine spiradenoma is clinically characterized by a solitary, movable, tender noduie occurring most frequently on the ventral surfase of the upper body. A striking symptom is paroxysmal pain. Histopathologically, the encapsulated lobules of the tumor are composed of masses of basophilic cells, usually arranged in whorls, cords, and pseudogland.s. Within the whorls and pseudoglands, two types of celIs are notedperipheral intensely staining cells and central pale-staining cells. We describe herein a patient with an indolent eccrine spiradenoma, which had been diagnosed histopathologically.
