Abstract

The syringocystadenoma papilliferum is an adnexal benign tumor that occurs in childhood and adolescence. Clinical presentation is variable consisting of papules, alopecic plaques or nodules and, therefore, histopathology is required to confirm the diagnosis. The lesions may undergo nodular or verrucous transformation at puberty. Over 75% of cases occur in the head and neck, and 40% are associated with the presence of sebaceous nevi. We report an unusual case of a syringocystadenoma papilliferum in the ankle with apocrine differentiation, with only 3 cases previously reported in the literature that were located in the leg and no prior reports in Latin America.
