Abstract EN

Aggressive digital papillary adenocarcinoma is a rare eccrine sweat gland malignancy that is frequently misdiagnosed at initial presentation.

Histologically, this tumor is similar in appearance to many adenocarcinomas and as such may be diagnosed as a metastatic lesion.

We present the case of a patient with digital papillary adenocarcinoma, which was initially diagnosed as a felon.

No consensus has been published regarding the treatment of this disease.

A review of the diagnosis, pathology, treatment, and adjunctive treatments of aggressive digital papillary adenocarcinoma are also included.
