Abstract: Syringocystadenoma papilliferum and tubular apocrine adenoma are rare benign sweat gland tumors. Syringocystadenoma papilliferum occurs alone or in association with other tumors. Although it is rare, the association of tubular apocrine adenoma with syringocystadenoma papilliferum developing in a sebaceous nevus on the scalp is well documented. However, the co-existence of these two tumors without the background of a sebaceous nevus has not been frequently reported. Syringocystadenoma papilliferum and tubular apocrine adenoma may have a histopathological overlap, but a few cases of a syringocystadenoma papilliferum combined with a tubular apocrine adenoma have been reported. Herein we describe an unusual case of syringocystadenoma papilliferum co-existing with a tubular apocrine adenoma located on the back of a 14-year-old patient in the absence of a pre-existing sebaceous nevus.

El nevo sebáceo o nevo de Jadassohn es un hamartoma cutáneo congénito poco frecuente formado por múltiples estructuras cutáneas. Presenta potencial de transformación a una variedad de neoplasias epidérmicas benignas y malignas, que suelen presentarse de manera individual. Si bien esta descrito en la literatura, es inusual el desarrollo de más de una neoplasia sobre un nevo sebáceo. En esta publicación se presenta el caso de un hombre de 62 años con una lesión de 3 años de evolución, cuyo estudio histopatológico demostró la presencia de un carcinoma basocelular y un siringocistoadenoma papilífero sobre un nevo sebáceo de Jadassohn.
Nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn is an infrequent cutaneous congenital hamartoma, formed by multiple cutaneous structures. It possesses a transformation potential to benign and malignant epidermic neoplasms, that usually present individually. Even though a few cases have been published, the coexistence of two or more tumors is rare. We hereby present the case of a 62 years old male, with a nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn history, that after excisional biopsy showed the presence of a basal cell carcinoma associated to a syringocystoadenoma papilliferum.

Comunicamos un caso de adenomatosis erosiva del pezón con correlación clínico-patológica, patología infrecuente y que debemos conocer para evitar cirugías agresivas innecesarias, dado que se presta al diagnóstico diferencial con la enfermedad de Paget y el carcinoma de mama intraductal.
A case of erosive adenomatosis of the nipple is reported with a clinicopathologic correlation, an unusual disease that we, as dermatologists, should know since the differential diagnosis with the Paget's disease and the intraductal breast carcinoma can lead to unnecessary surgery.
