title: Porocarcinoma: A systematic review of literature with a single case report.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Eccrine porocarcinoma is a very rare type of skin cancer. It is an aggressive dermatological malignancy. We presented a 62-year-old male with long history of a mass in left forearm complicated by distant metastasis and death. A rapid review of literature has been presented.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Eccrine porocarcinoma is a rare but aggressive type of skin disease. It may arise de novo or complicate a benign skin lesion. Wide local resection is recommended.
