  • Title: Multiple eccrine spiradenomas in a zosteriform pattern.
    Author: Rosales Santillan M, ATajnert K, Swaby MG, Migden MR, Silapunt S.
    Journal: Dermatol Online J; 2017 Aug 15; 23(8):. PubMed ID: 29469747.
    Abstract:
    Eccrine spiradenoma (ES) typically presents as a solitary tender lesion. Multiple ES is a rare variant of ES and can present in a segmental, linear, blaschkoid, or zosteriform pattern. The etiology of multiple ES is unknown, but several theories have been suggested including a multipotent stem cell origin. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman with multiple painful ES in a zosteriform pattern on the mid-back and abdomen. Skin biopsy of a representative lesion demonstrated a circumscribed tumor nodule encapsulated by a fibrous capsule with diffuse dense basophilic proliferation located in the dermis. The lesions were then excised on two separate sessions without recurrence.
