Abstract
- Chondroid syringoma is a benign, rare, asymptomatic, slow-growing mixed tumor. Tumors larger than 3cm are considered giant and may be malignant. We present a 65-year-old man with a chronic, indolent, subcutaneous tumor with upper lip deformity. An excisional biopsy was performed under local anesthesia. Based on histopathological analysis, the resected lesion was identified as a chondroid syringoma of the apocrine type. There was no recurrence during the one-year follow-up after surgery. The occurrence of a large chondroid syringoma in the upper lip is rare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
