Abstract

The article focuses on the potential histologic pitfall when distinguishing between plaquelike syringoma and microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC). It mentions Plaquelike syringoma is a benign variant that can mimic MAC, leading to unnecessary treatment if not differentiated early, and this case report highlights the importance of careful recognition and collaboration with dermatopathologists to prevent unwarranted surgical morbidity.
