Chondroid syringoma of leg diagnosed by Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Chondroid syringoma is commonly located at head and neck region and rarely in orbit, hand, forearm, foot, scrotum etc. It usually presents as asymptomatic mass often misdiagnosed clinically with other lesions like dermoid cyst, neurofibroma, dermatofibroma, pilomatrixoma, cutaneous histiocytoma and seborrheic keratosis. ough histopathology is a gold standard, FNAC may suggest a diagnosis of Chondroid syringoma on the basis of thick mucoid aspirates showing distinct biphasic cell population of epithelial and myoepithelial cells in a fibrillary chondro-myxoid stroma. ere are not many reported cases of Chondroid syringoma diagnosed cytologically. e present case is of a chondroid syringoma of lower third of right leg, which was primarily diagnosed by FNAC and later confirmed by histology. e present case emphasizes the cytodiagnosis of Chondroid syringoma and its rare location (right leg) for optimal patient management.
