Syringocystadenoma papilliferum on the mons pubis

Dermatol Online J. 2018 Apr 14;24(4):13030/qt78p5v0dd.

Abstract

It is relatively rare to find syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) outside the head and neck region and extremely rare in the anogenital area. Characteristic histological features such as cystic invaginations, glandular epithelium showing decapitation secretion, and stroma with plasma cells are important for making the diagnosis. We present a rare case of SCAP on the mons pubis of a 13-year-old girl and compare cases of SCAP from other rare locations.
