Abstract
Benign cutaneous apocrine sweat gland adenomas in the nose are rare. We present the novel case of a nasal ala cutaneous sweat gland lesion. A 43-year-old male presents with a one year history of a right nostril mass with intermittent clear discharge, triggered by periods of hot weather and increased humidity. Histopathological analysis post-excision revealed a solid-cystic lesion of bi-layered ducts, with snouts suggestive of apocrine secretions. Given the close relationship of tumour enlargement with heat and expression of clear liquid upon direct pressure, we postulate that the intermittent tumescence represents sweat production and accumulation within the lesion. Laryngoscope, 135:602–604, 2025
期刊介绍：
The Laryngoscope has been the leading source of information on advances in the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck disorders since 1890. The Laryngoscope is the first choice among otolaryngologists for publication of their important findings and techniques. Each monthly issue of The Laryngoscope features peer-reviewed medical, clinical, and research contributions in general otolaryngology, allergy/rhinology, otology/neurotology, laryngology/bronchoesophagology, head and neck surgery, sleep medicine, pediatric otolaryngology, facial plastics and reconstructive surgery, oncology, and communicative disorders. Contributions include papers and posters presented at the Annual and Section Meetings of the Triological Society, as well as independent papers, "How I Do It", "Triological Best Practice" articles, and contemporary reviews. Theses authored by the Triological Society’s new Fellows as well as papers presented at meetings of the American Laryngological Association are published in The Laryngoscope.
