Abstract:
Chondroid syringoma is a rare benign appendage tumor of the skin. Histologically, the tumor is characterized by the presence of sweat gland elements surrounded by a cartilage-like material. The lesions are most frequently located around the nose. Clinically, they appear as solitary, firm, circumscribed, slowly growing intracutaneous or subcutaneous nodules. In the majority of cases the clinical diagnosis is either basal cell epithelioma or cyst. This paper calls attention to the characteristic clinical features of chondroid syringoma as observed in five patients.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
