title: Chondroid syringoma in the hypothenar region.
abstract: A case of chondroid syringoma in the palm, probably the fourth to be reported, is presented. There was a large cystic cavity in the center of the tumor. The peculiar findings of hyaline, myxoid, or chondroid degeneration of the abundant stroma were observed histologically. This tumor should be considered in the differential diagnosis of painless, slow-growing palm tumors.
