Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a rare, benign hamartomatous neoplasm of skin adnexal originating from pluripotent cells differentiating into either apocrine or eccrine sweat glands. It usually appears at birth, during infancy or puberty and commonly located at head and neck. This case report illustrates a rare occurrence at an atypical anatomical location and unusual onset. In this case report, we report a 20-year-old female with a chief complain of solitary pink-brown color fleshy plaque with soft-medium consistency on her left flank region since the last 7 months. She underwent complete surgical excision and histopathology examination, which confirmed the diagnosis as syringocystadenoma papilliferum without sign of malignancy, with main characteristics histologically include cystic invaginations from the epidermis lined by double layers of epithelial and myoepithelial cells. Despite having benign characteristics, rare transformations to malignancy have been reported. Therefore, complete surgical excision and histopathology examination should be done in suspicion of syringocystadenoma papilliferum.

“…[ 31 32 33 ] There is a single case report of dermoscopy of SCAP arising de novo revealing central crater surrounded by white structureless areas and or shiny white lines and an outer rim of brown structureless area. Occasional rosettes and dotted vessels were also mentioned,[ 34 ] making it difficult to differentiate from molluscum contagiosum, and hence, there was a need to rely on histopathology for diagnosis confirmation.…”

Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) is an uncommon, benign adnexal neoplasm that occurs de novo or in an organoid nevus. It usually presents as a skin-coloured to pink, solitary, smooth, hairless plaque, verruca or nodule frequently on the scalp and forehead. SCAP may be present at unusual sites including the arm, forearm, trunk and chest. Diagnosing SCAP arising on uncommon sites is difficult owing to its varied presentation. Mostly, they are wrongly diagnosed clinically and found to be SCAP only on histopathology. We present this study of cases of SCAP with unusual location and varied presentations, which were clinically misdiagnosed. The five cases included in this study were patients attending the dermatology outpatient department in a tertiary care centre in North India. The clinical presentation and the involved sites were noted by the dermatologist, and a clinical diagnosis was made. Biopsy of the lesions was sent for histopathological examination. There are five patients in the series – four are male and one female, with age ranging from 28 to 48 years. Locations included the forearm, arm, anterior chest wall and lateral abdominal wall. The lesions clinically appeared as warty papule or nodules and one lesion appeared within a plaque, with the average duration being 5.3 years. In all five patients, the lesions were clinically suspected to be either tuberculosis verruca cutis or nodular basal cell carcinoma or dermatofibroma sarcoma protuberans (DFSP) or verruca or fibroma or pyogenic granuloma. A confirmatory diagnosis of SCAP was made for all the patients on histopathology. We are presenting five cases which were misdiagnosed clinically due to the unusual location and varied presentation to emphasise the importance of histopathology in diagnosing SCAP arising de novo , which was clinically misdiagnosed. Also, we present this case series to alert the clinicians about the likelihood of SCAP on unusual locations with varied clinical presentation.
