Abstract:
Naevus sebaceus is a cutaneous hamartoma with the potential of developing into benign or malignant neoplasms. Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) have been reported to originate from naevus sebaceus. SCAP is a rare, benign adnexal skin tumour of apocrine or eccrine type of differentiation which typically presents as a nodule or a plaque on the scalp or face. We report a case of syringocystadenoma papilliferum arising in an undiagnosed pre-existing naevus sebaceus in a 56-year-old female.
