Abstract

Eccrine poroma is a benign sweat gland tumor which arises from the intraepidermal portion of the eccrine sweat ducts. Although acral surfaces such as the palm and sole are common sites for these tumors, it has recently been reported that they may also appear in different locations and on hairy areas of the body. In this article, a case of eccrine poroma located on lateral left eyebrow was presented because of its rareness in the head and neck region, the possibility of malignant degeneration and conflicts in the literature.

Ekrin poroma, ekrin bezlerin intraepitelyal duktuslarından köken alan bening ter bezi tümörüdür. El ayası, ayak tabanı gibi akral bölgeler bu tümörlerin sık izlendiği bölgeler olmasına rağmen, bu tümörlerin vücudun farklı bölgelerinde ve kıllı alanlarda da ortaya çıkabileceği bildirilmiştir. Bu sunumda, sol kaş laterali yerleşimli bir ekrin poroma vakası, bu tür lezyonların baş-boyun bölgesinde sık izlenmemesi, malign dejenerasyon gösterebilme olasılıkları ve literatürdeki zıtlıklar nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
