title: Eccrine porocarcinoma: a case report.
abstract: We report a 58-year-old Chinese female who presented with a pigmented skin lesion on the right thigh, associated with a single ipsilateral inguinal lymph node without distant metastases detected. A wide excision of the tumour, split skin graft coverage and an en-bloc ipsilateral superficial groin dissection was performed. Histopathology revealed malignant skin adnexal tumour or porocarcinoma, with nodal metastases. She is presently at six months follow-up without any recurrence.
