A Clinicopathologic Study With Special Reference to the Pigmented Variety

AMIR H. MEHREGAN, MD

Arch Dermatol. 1964;90(3):274-279.

Abstract
Apocrine cystadenoma is a benign nevoid tumor of the skin occurring most commonly on the face. The tumor appears as a domeshaped translucent nodule. In more than half of the cases the lesion is pigmented, resembling a blue nevus, pigmented nevus, or pigmented basal cell epithelioma. It must be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of the pigmented lesions on the face.
