Malignant chondroid syringoma, a rare sweat gland tumor, requires multimodal treatment. Fine needle aspiration cytology aids in diagnosing this recurrent scalp tumor, enabling effective surgical and radiotherapy planning.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatopathology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Malignant chondroid syringoma (MCS) is an exceptionally rare sweat gland tumor, with limited documented cases.
  • Recurrent subcutaneous swellings, particularly on the scalp with lymph node involvement, warrant consideration of rare diagnoses.

Observation:

  • A female patient presented with a recurrent subcutaneous scalp swelling and regional lymph node positivity.
  • Preoperative diagnosis of MCS was established via fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).

Findings:

  • The patient underwent successful management through a multimodal approach, combining radical surgery and radiotherapy.
  • The patient remained symptom-free for 25 months post-treatment.

Implications:

  • Recurrence after excision should raise suspicion for malignant tumors like MCS.
