Abstract
Hamartomas with eccrine differentiation are quite rare. There are 5 accepte d classifications: eccrine nevus, eccrine-centered news, eccrine angiomatou s hamartoma, eccrine syringofibroadenoma, and porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus. The latter, PEODDN, typically presents as congenital keratotic papules and plaques located on the distal extremities. We report a classic case of PEODDN that Nas localized to the left hand since early c hildhood. The literature on this rare benign tumor is also reviewed.
