Pedunculated eccrine poromas on non-acral sites

A woman in her mid-50s, a patient with metastatic right breast carcinoma, postradical mastectomy and chemoradiation on hormonal therapy, presented with asymptomatic reddish lesions over the neck and trunk. Cutaneous examination revealed three discrete pedunculated, non-tender, firm erythematous growths with smooth surfaces over the neck, chest and abdomen. Histopathological examination was done with the differentials of pyogenic granuloma, haemangioma, giant acrochordon and vascular metastasis, revealing the diagnosis of eccrine poroma (EP). The remaining lesions were removed by electrocautery with no relapse till 1 year of follow-up. EP is a rare benign neoplasm arising from the acrosyringium that commonly presents as solitary, sessile or pedunculated asymptomatic papules or nodules over the palms and soles. Here we report the rare occurrence of multiple pedunculated EPs on a non-acral site in a patient who received chemoradiotherapy, which clinically mimicked pyogenic granuloma and vascular metastases. Thus, emphasising the importance of considering EP as a differential in lesions with vascular morphology.
