- Abstract
We report a case of papillary eccrine adenoma. This benign cutaneous tumour had a diagnostic microscopic appearance that consisted of multiple dilated ducts line by two r more layers of cells. The inner layer often formed intraluminal papillary projections of variable complexity the lumina were filled by eosnohilic amorphous material. Immunoperxidase studies showed carcino-embryonic antigen in the luminal border of the carcin-embryonic antigen in the luminal border of the ducts, but S-100 protein was absent for tumoral ducts. We discuss the eccrine and apocrine differentiation of this neoplasm on the basis of the immunoperoxidase results the differential diagnosis includes other cutaneous neplasms with intraductal papillary proliferation.
