Multiple eccrine hidrocystoma (EH) has been treated with topical atropine with variable results. However, in rare cases, anticholinergic side effects have been seen after the use of the topical form of this drug. We presented a 50-year-old woman who developed recent onset of visual disturbance and
BACKGROUND
Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas pose a significant treatment challenge due to their facial location and tendency to scar after traditional surgical and other destructive modalities.
OBJECTIVE
To compare two frequently used non-destructive therapeutic modalities.
METHODS
Thirty patients
Eccrine hidrocystomas are rare, benign, cystic lesions with a lining that resembles that of the eccrine sweat gland and may be solitary or multiple. Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas occur predominantly on the face as asymptomatic, skin-colored to bluish lesions associated with a chronic course and
Most eccrine hidrocystomas are solitary, asymptomatic lesions. Multiple hidrocystomas are very rare and are probably caused by dilatation of eccrine ducts. Immunohistochemical investigations are helpful in distinguishing whether a solitary or multiple form is present. An isolated hidrocystoma can be
The clinical and pathological features and treatment of two patients with multiple eccrine hidrocystomas are presented. The first case is characterized by multiple pearly papules with a bluish hue located in the periorbital region and the bridge of the nose. The second case is characterized by
We describe clinically and histologically typical eccrine hidrocystomas on the eyelids and forehead of a 60-year-old woman which were successfully treated with topical atropine. Concomitantly the patient had long-standing Parkinson's disease with typical facial seborrhea and hyperhidrosis. In this
Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas are benign cystic skin lesions which originate from the sweat gland ducts and typically affect women's midfacial area. Sweating may lead to an increase in size of the translucent papules. In some cases hidrocystomas are associated with other diseases such as
BACKGROUND
Multiple eccrine hidrocystomas of the face are a rare facial dermatosis for which no recent large series of cases has been reported.
OBJECTIVE
To describe the clinicopathologic features of five cases of multiple eccrine hidrocystoma and to emphasize their similar
This is a case report followed by a short review of literature of apocrine hidrocystomas. A 67 year old lady came to this clinic with multiple translucent, asymptomatic papulocystic lesions on the face which got worse in summer. A biopsy showed a single cystic cavity lined by two layers of small
BACKGROUND
Axillary hyperhidrosis does not have a low-cost, free of secondary effects, satisfactory treatment. Eccrine hidrocystomas have been successfully treated with topical atropine solution. Hypothesis Axillary hyperhidrosis could respond to the topical application of atropine
Apocrine hidrocystomas are benign cystic tumors that develop from apocrine gland proliferation. In most cases, they are translucent solitary lesions of the face, generally found in the periorbital region, on the scalp or on the neck. More rarely, apocrine hidrocystomas may be multiple
