Abstract

Eccrine poromas are rare, benign adnexal tumors derived from the intraepidermal portion of sweat ducts.

They usually appear as solitary, slow-growing, skin-colored papules on acral surfaces. Here we present the unusual situation of a patient with multiple poromas only three of which are located near the distal extremities.
