    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Papillary eccrine adenoma is a distinctive eccrine sweat gland tumor.
    • Previously, its classification has sometimes been debated, with occasional consideration as malignant.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize papillary eccrine adenoma.
    • To evaluate its clinical behavior and treatment outcomes.
    • To establish its benign nature.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective study of 14 patients with papillary eccrine adenoma.
    • Clinical follow-up of 11 patients for an average of 35 months post-excision.
    • Histopathological examination of tumor characteristics.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The majority of patients were Black, with tumors predominantly on distal extremities.
    • No instances of metastasis were observed.
    • One tumor recurred after initial excision but was successfully treated with re-excision, with no further recurrence in a subsequent 30-month follow-up.
    • Microscopic features include duct-like structures with intraluminal papillations.

    Conclusions:

    • Papillary eccrine adenoma is a benign neoplasm.
    • Surgical excision with clear surgical margins, confirmed by pathology, is the recommended treatment.
    • Accurate histopathological recognition is crucial for diagnosis.
