Eccrine carcinoma is a rare sweat gland tumor also called as syringoid carcinoma. It comprises a malignant primary cutaneous neoplasm which prevalence increases from the fifth decade of life and has a high rate of local invasion. Other types of cutaneous tumors such as squamous cell and basal cell carcinomas and metastases of visceral adenocarcinomas are considered differential diagnoses. An anatomopathological examination with the immunohistochemical study is fundamentally important for this neoplasia diagnostic.
