title: Papillary eccrine adenoma. Immunohistochemical and ultrastructural analyses.
abstract: A case of papillary eccrine adenoma was analysed with immunohistochemical and ultrastructural methods regarding their direction of differentiation. It was found that the majority of the structures show either eccrine ductal or glandular differentiation. There were some segments, particularly in those exhibiting papillary growth, where cells similar to eccrine secretory (clear) cells or cells with characteristics of both ductal basal cells and glandular myoepithelial cells were present.
