Malignant acrospiroma of chest and abdominal wall treated with chemotherapy
Acrospiroma denotes a group of benign ductal tumours of the eccrine sweat glands that may or may not be connected to the skin. Although various eccrine sweat gland tumours including benign acrospiroma are widely reviewed, malignant acrospiroma is rarely ...

Sweat evaporation in humans: A molecular and thermodynamic perspective
Abstract Evaporative heat loss through sweating is essential for maintaining thermal balance in humans, particularly during exercise or in hot environments. Although the physiological mechanisms regulating sweat production and skin blood flow are well documented, the molecular processes underpinning sweat evaporation are less often considered.

Chondroid Syringoma and Eccrine Spiradenoma [PDF]
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a well established diagnostic tool. However, most clinicians prefer to diagnose suspected skin tumors by excisional biopsy as they are easily accessible and hence benign skin adnexal tumors are rarely encountered

ABSTRACT Neoplasms of unknown primary frequently pose a diagnostic challenge due to their nonspecific morphological and immunohistochemical features. Definitive classification of these neoplasms has a profound impact on treatment decisions. Mutational and gene expression profiling can provide diagnostic and prognostic information in these challenging ...

Epidermal Nevi and Epidermal Naevus Syndromes
ABSTRACT Epidermal nevi (EN) arise from postzygotic variants in ectoderm‐derived cell lines, such as keratinocytes and cells forming adnexa. EN may be present alone without any associated abnormality or be part of a syndrome. In this review, we will discuss about the clinical and genetics of the main types of EN and related syndromes.

Comparative evidence for the independent evolution of hair and sweat gland traits in primates
Humans differ in many respects from other primates, but perhaps no derived human feature is more striking than our naked skin. Long purported to be adaptive, humans’ unique external appearance is characterized by changes in both the patterning of hair ...

Perianal eccrine adenocarcinoma
Background Eccrine carcinoma is a quite rare malignant tumor that typically arises from a normal sweat gland and that features a rather high recurrence rate subsequent to simple excision.
