Details

Malignant eccrine differentiated sweat gland tumors are rare and aggressive neoplasms originating from the sweat glands. This category includes tumors with mixed histological features, such as porocarcinoma and eccrine spiradenocarcinoma. Porocarcinoma is characterized by its origin from the eccrine ductal epithelium and presents as an infiltrative and locally destructive lesion. Eccrine spiradenocarcinoma arises from pre-existing spiradenomas and demonstrates both epithelial and myoepithelial differentiation. The combination of these two entities in a single tumor poses significant diagnostic...
