Chondroid syringoma in a toe.

G K Potter, H G Baldinger, M C Boxer

    Cutis
    |September 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This report details a rare chondroid syringoma on a toe, confirmed by microscopy. The tumor exhibits specific cellular characteristics and should be considered for slow-growing foot tumors.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatopathology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Chondroid syringoma, a rare skin appendage tumor, typically affects the head and neck.
    • Tumors of the foot present unique diagnostic challenges due to their location and potential for slow growth.

    Observation:

    • Presents the second documented case of chondroid syringoma occurring on a toe.
    • The tumor was characterized by microscopic examination and histochemical analysis.

    Findings:

    • Histochemical studies revealed heavily sulfated stromal acid mucopolysaccharides.
    • Tumor cells contained glycogen, and keratin-containing cells and nests were observed under polarization microscopy.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known anatomical distribution of chondroid syringoma.
  • Highlights the importance of considering chondroid syringoma in the differential diagnosis of indolent, painless pedal neoplasms.
