Poroma of the eyelid.Ophthal Plast Reconstr Surg. 2008 Jan-Feb;24(1):63-5.

A 71-year-old white woman sought treatment for poroma of the right lower eyelid. Excisional biopsy was performed, and the specimen had histologic features consistent with poroma. One year after excision, there has been no recurrence of the lesion. Clinicians should be aware that poroma can occur in regions other than the hands and feet.

Dermoscopy of eccrine poroma.Dermatology. 2007;215(2):160-3.

Eccrine poroma (EP) may clinically mimic a number of benign and malignant skin tumors. Dermoscopy improves the clinical diagnosis of many pigmented and nonpigmented skin tumors, but to date little is known about the impact of dermoscopy in the diagnosis of EP. We report 2 patients with EP and discuss the diagnostic significance of the observed dermoscopic findings.

The eccrine poroma is a rare benign sudoral tumour, which creates a fleshy formation. The diagnosis is made according to the anatomopathological study. The usual site is the sol, but in rare cases, other sites have also been reported. The authors report three cases of eccrine poroma localised in the scalp with literature review.
