    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • The case presents an unusual skin disease characterized by specific clinical and histological findings.
    • Previous literature includes only two similar case reports, highlighting the rarity of this condition.

    Observation:

    • A 26-year-old man exhibited a hairless skin area on his left leg with reddish-brown papules.
    • The lesion also featured follicular hyperkeratosis and localized absence of sweating (circumscribed anhidrosis).

    Findings:

    • Skin biopsies revealed dense lymphocytic infiltrates in the dermis.
    • These infiltrates were concentrated around hyperplastic sweat ducts and glands.

    Implications:

    • The study proposes a new term, syringolymphoid hyperplasia with alopecia, for this distinct skin disease.
