Poroma
Introduction

Eccrine poroma is a tumor of sweat glands, consisting mostly of basaloid cells growing in solid pattern. Focally small ducts can be found. Three variants of this tumor are recognized: eccrine poroma with tumorous nests broadly connected to the epidermis, hidroacanthoma simplex (with clonal grow limited to the epidermis) and dermal duct tumor (dermal form with no connection to the epidermis). Malignant poromas (porocarcinomas) are rare.
