ABSTRACT

The poroide carcinoma (PC) is a rare malignant neoplasm that may arise from the acrosyringium of the sweat gland, or as a malignant transformation of an eccrine poroma, a simplex hidroacanthoma or nevus sebaceous. The etiology of PC still remains unknown, with predisposing factors: sun damage, radiation therapy, immunosuppression. We report a rare positive diagnosis case for PC scalp, in a young woman, focusing on the diagnostic difficulties and their respective pathological aspect.
