Primary Cutaneous Cribriform Tumor in a 10-Year-Old Child

Primary cutaneous cribriform tumor is a rare sweat gland neoplasm with a characteristic histologic architecture and typically benign clinical behavior. We present the first reported pediatric case in a 10-year-old female who developed a painful, firm nodular lesion on the lateral aspect of her right foot. Initially thought to be a verruca, the lesion was treated conservatively. However, the persistence of pain prompted a biopsy that revealed features consistent with a primary cutaneous cribriform tumor. Imaging showed no evidence of spread, and the lesion was excised with a conservative surgical approach.
