Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas, benign skin cysts, present unique clinical and pathological features. Treatment varied, with topical atropine effective for one patient and hyfrecation for another.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Eccrine hidrocystomas are benign cystic neoplasms originating from sweat ducts.
  • Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas are rare, presenting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Observation:

  • Two cases of multiple eccrine hidrocystomas are presented with distinct clinical manifestations.
  • Lesions varied from pearly, bluish papules to skin-colored papules, primarily in the periorbital region, exacerbated by heat and humidity.

Findings:

  • Histopathology revealed unilocular dermal cysts with a 2-3-layered cuboidal epithelium.
  • Topical atropine sulfate 1% showed efficacy in one patient, while the other responded well to hyfrecation after poor tolerance to atropine.

Implications:

  • This study highlights the variable presentation and treatment outcomes for multiple eccrine hidrocystomas.

  • Effective management may involve a combination of pharmacotherapy and physical treatments tailored to patient tolerance and lesion characteristics.
