Syringocystadenoma papilliferum arising within a nevus sebaceous: A case report

@#Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a rare benign adnexal skin tumor of apocrine or eccrine differentiation. It usually appears at puberty wherein a third of cases arise within a nevus sebaceous.

Histopathology confirmed the above diagnosis.
