Porocarcinoma is a rare malignant skin tumour that has an aggressive behaviour.[1]
It is also known as eccrine porocarcinoma (abbreviated EPC) and malignant eccrine poroma.[2]
General
Clinical features - based on meta-analysis of 453 cases:[1]
- No predominance males versus females.
- Aggressive behaviour >30% of cases have metastases at presentation - typically to lymph nodes.
Treatment:
- Surgery,
Gross
- Mass or nodule - typically head and neck (40% of cases) or lower extremity (34% of cases).[1]
Microscopic
Features:
- Ductal/eccrine differentiation:[2]
- Intracytoplasmic lumens.
- Multicellular ducts with thin esoinophilic layer.
- Lack granular cells and lack decapitated lumens - features of apocrine differentiation.
- Features of malignancy:[2]
- Desmoplastic stromal response.
- Irregular dermis infiltrating cell clusters.
- +/-Squamous differentiation.
- +/-Basaloid differentiation.
DDx:[3]
- Basal cell carcinoma.
- Squamous cell carcinoma.
- Pyogenic granuloma.
- Verruca vulgaris.
- Adenocarcinoma.
- Malignant melanoma - desmoplastic and nodular variants.
