Mucinous eccrine nevus.
We report a solitary lesion with histologic characteristics of an organoid nevus occurring on the lower extremity of a forty-seven-year-old woman. This lesion is thought to represent a variant of eccrine nevus composed of an intradermal proliferation of hyperplastic eccrine sweat glands with associated mucinous change.
