Abstract
Background: Chondroid syringomas are rare benign mixed epithelial tumors of the skin which share similarities with pleomorphic adenomas of the parotid gland.
Clinical Description: Middle-aged female with swelling over the right parietal region of scalp for 5 years with a history of recurrence for 2 years.
Management: Ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration of the swelling was done. Excision under local anesthesia was carried out and the specimen was sent for histopathological analysis.
Conclusion: Histopathological diagnosis of excised tumors is crucial in planning further management for the patient and has to be made compulsorily in all cases.
