Abstract

Chondroid syringoma is a rare, skin appendageal tumour, usually reported at the head and neck region. It is a mostly intradermal and rarely subcutaneous small painless nodule. The histopathological examination is characterized by a combination of epithelial and myoepithelial structures within a chondromyxoid and fibrous stroma. Herein, we present a rare case of chondroid syringoma with extensive bone formation.

Keywords: Benign mixed tumour; Ossification; Skin tumour.
