Malignant chondroid syringoma--a rare cause of secondary bone tumour.
Sweat-gland carcinomas are very rare, comprising only 0.01% of primary tumours of the skin. Malignant chondroid syringoma is the least common variety, of which less than twenty cases have been recorded. We report a case in which this tumour presented as an osteolytic secondary deposit.
