A Case of Chondroid Syringoma / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Chondroid syringoma or mixed tumor of the skin is a rare appendageal tumor with eccrine and appocrine, dual origin. It occurs mostly on the head and neck, being an asymptomatic solitary firm intradermal or subcutaneous nodule. Histopathologically, there are two types, which are tubular branching lumina type and small, tubular lumina type. Although it is uncommon, the incidence of this is higher than what we have previously considered. We present a case of chondroid syringoma presenting with asymptomatic, solitary, flesh-colored, firm, 1x1 cm sized, dome-shaped nodule on the left nasolabial fold in a 67 year-old woman.
