This case report details a rare mucinous eccrine nevus, a skin condition characterized by abnormal sweat gland growth and mucin. The late-onset presentation appeared as a swollen patch on a patient's toe.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Histopathology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Mucinous eccrine nevus is an extremely rare benign skin neoplasm.
  • Few cases have been documented in medical literature.
  • This condition involves the proliferation of eccrine glands and ducts with mucin deposition.

Observation:

  • A 46-year-old male presented with an erythematous, tender, swollen patch on the dorsum of his left fourth toe.
  • Histopathological examination of the biopsied tissue revealed a proliferation of eccrine glands and ducts.
  • Abundant mucin, confirmed by toluidine blue stain, surrounded the glandular structures.

Findings:

  • The key finding was the confirmation of mucinous eccrine nevus.
  • The patient's presentation was characterized by a late onset and a swollen patch.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Histopathology confirmed the presence of normally structured eccrine glands and ducts amidst mucin.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of mucinous eccrine nevus, a rare skin condition.
    • The report highlights a late-onset presentation of this entity.
    • Further research may elucidate the pathogenesis and optimal management of mucinous eccrine nevus.
