We describe a large 5.5cm x 3cm, x 1cm erythmatous, grapelike pedunculated tumor in the postauricular region of a 55 year old female. The lesion was managed with adequate excision and defect was closed with rhomboid flap. A diagnosis of benign eccrine acrospiroma was made after immunohistochemistry.
