Article Abstract
Eccrine poroma is a non-cancerous tumor that arises from the intraepidermal portion of the eccrine sweat glands. It usually appears as a solitary lesion on an extremity, commonly on the foot or sole, and is often subject to delayed or inaccurate diagnosis in clinical settings. This article describes a rare case of eccrine poroma located on the palm. It discusses the clinical and histological features, diagnostic difficulties, recurrence risks, and the possibility of malignant transformation associated with this condition.

Eccrine poromas are small adnexal neoplasms that arise from the lumen of sweat glands. These lesions are typically small and can mimic other skin conditions, complicating their differentiation during physical examination. We present a case involving a 70-year-old Caucasian man who presented with an unusual mass on his left hand that had considerably increased in size.

Introduction: Eccrine poroma (EP) is a benign adnexal tumor. Establishing a definitive diagnosis based on clinical and dermoscopic findings can be challenging.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to perform a comprehensive analysis of the dermoscopic features of pigmented, hypopigmented, and nonpigmented variants of EP and to compare these dermoscopic features in patients with dark and light Fitzpatrick skin phototypes.
