Introduction
Malignant acrospiroma (MA) - is rather rare tumor with eccrine ductal and secretory differentiation, including clear cell component. This type of tumor appears more often in elderly people (average male patient age is 51 years, female patient - 55 years). The tumor corresponds to solitary intradermal, exophytic or mixed type node 0.5-2 cm or more in diameter, hemispheric, tight-elastic texture, on wide base, covered with unchanged skin, sometimes with ulcers. Small percent of cases have clear discharge from tumor. Considering the same architecture of malignant nodular hydradenoma and benign analogue, it is difficult to find the difference between them, although undisputed manifestation of malignance is vessel and perineural invasion, lymphogenic metastasis. The tumor is very aggressive and liable to metastasis. It is important to notice that there are no direct histological and clinical signs, predicting biological behavior of the tumor. Despite chemotherapy, patients with metastasis has fatal outcome vary rapidly. There no proved data of chemotherapy impact on malignant acrospiroma (Figure 1).
