Abstract
- Eccrine poroma is a benign neoplasm that originates from an eccrine sweat duct. Although it is most commonly found on the soles of the feet, it has also been unusually observed on many other areas of the skin, such as the nose, neck, chest, and scalp. We report two cases of eccrine poroma occurring on the scalp, which is an unusual location.
