Abstract
Syringocystadenoma papilliferum, a distinct dermatologic entity, is an exceedingly rare benign skin neoplasm and seems to have arisen from apocrine or eccrine adnexal structures. The diagnosis is clinically suspected and histologically confirmed due to its non-distinct clinical findings and varied presentations. Since it usually appears at birth or during puberty and adolescence, it is called as Childhood tumor. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice followed by detailed histologic examination, to avoid the risk of malignant degeneration. Herein, we have reported a rare case of Syringocystadenoma papilliferum of eyelid in an adolescent female.
