- Abstract
Syringomas are benign adnexal tumors of eccrine sweat glands. Clinically, they present as small skin-colored or slightly pigmented papules. Depending of the location, eyelid syringoma is the most frequent and those localized on the other areas, such as the genital region, scalp, and acral areas. Onset of the syringomas is usually before or during the peripubertal period. From Kaposi's description in the nineteenth century the eruptive form is very rare. Friedman and Butler reported a classification, based on the clinical features. These are a localized form, a familial form, a form associated with Down's syndrome, and a generalized form that encompasses multiple and eruptive syringoma. The lesions are benign and may spontaneously resolve, or, more commonly, remain stable. Benign disease is generally treated cosmetically. In the present case, we have described a rare form of syringoma which is generalized eruptive syringoma.
