Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Ophthalmology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Syringoma is a benign adnexal tumor originating from sweat gland ducts.
  • Typically presents as multiple, small, flesh-colored papules, often on the eyelids.
  • Commonly affects young women, with onset usually in adolescence or early adulthood.

Observation:

  • An unusual case of sclerosing syringoma was identified.
  • The lesion presented as a single, isolated tumor.
  • The affected individual was an adult male, and the location was the lower eyelid.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of sclerosing syringoma.
  • The sclerotic variant of syringoma is characterized by dense stromal sclerosis.
  • The presentation in a male as a solitary lesion is atypical.

Implications:

  • This case expands the known clinical spectrum of syringoma presentation.
  • Highlights the importance of considering syringoma in the differential diagnosis of eyelid tumors in men.
  • Underscores the need for thorough histopathological evaluation for accurate diagnosis and management.
