A Case of Apocrine Type of Cutaneous Mixed Tumor with Follicular Differentiation / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Mixed tumor of the skin or chondroid syringoma is a benign neoplasm characterized by histological features of a mixture of epithelial and mesenchymal components. Mixed tumor could be divided into two distinct types, eccrine and apocrine. We report a 59-year-old man with a 2X1 cm sized nodule on the right upper eyebrow. Histologically, it showed typical features of mixed tumor with tubules exhibiting branching and cystic dilatation in the myxoid and chondroid stroma. We observed apocrine type of cutaneous mixed tumor with follicular differentiation.
