%0 Journal Article %T Multiple eccrine spiradenoma in a young Greek patient: case report and review of the literature %V 10 %N 3 %P 278-280 %U http://www.odermatol.com/issue-in-html/2019-3-14-spiradenoma/ %X Eccrine spiradenoma is an uncommon and benign adnexal tumor characterized by one or more nodules. The present article refers to a young patient with multiple and gradually enlarged nodules which remained undiagnosed and untreated for many years. Lesions were initially considered as multiple leiomyomas whereas skin biopsy revealed the existence of uncommon and benign tumors of eccrine and apocrine grandular adnexa confirming the diagnosis of eccrine spiradenoma. Similarities in clinical appearance and symptoms between tumors may lead to erroneous diagnosis and skin biopsy is an essential tool for differential diagnosis. %G en %J Our Dermatology Online %A Gerochristou, Maria %D 2019-07-02
