Abstract EN
We report a new case of p63/cytokeratin 7 (CK7) positive syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum (SCACP), on the shoulder of an 88-year-old man, with superficial dermal infiltration and squamoid differentiation.
We describe the 24th case of SCACP, the malignant counterpart of syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP).
At the present, we do not know whether SCACP arises from eccrine or apocrine glands because of the contrasting opinions in the literature.
Only few histochemical and ultrastructural studies have previously advised that SCACP could arise from pluripotent stem cells.
Through our case, we wish to suggest the stem cell-like properties of the syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum.
This rare neoplasm shows two different patterns of stem cell marker expression in the glandular and squamous components, respectively.
For the double phenotype of SCACP, we propose it like an intriguing model to study histogenesis and stem cell properties for more wide-ranging epithelial tumors.
