Summary
Papillary syringocystadenoma is a rare neoplasm of sweat glands, which is present at birth in 50% of cases.[1]. A 6-year-old male, a native and resident of São José dos Campos, SP, presented a lesion with progressive growth five years ago on the left flank. A papule of pink-erythematous coloration was observed, with a smooth surface and a fibroelastic consistency, measuring 5 mm × 3 mm (Fig. 1). Dermoscopic examination showed rounded structures of whitish-yellow color separated by whitish linear structures on an erythematous background (Fig. 2).
