An Unusual Case of Squamoid Eccrine Carcinoma of the Abdominal Wall with Inguinal Nodal Metastases: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Abstract

Introduction: Squamoid eccrine carcinoma is a very rare carcinoma with few reported cases in the literature. As a result, there is limited guidance on management and follow-up of these cases. Case Presentation: We describe the case of a 39 year-old male with a large painful squamoid eccrine carcinoma of the right lower abdominal wall with inguinal nodal involvement. He underwent radical resection, superficial groin dissection, transposition of a sartorius muscle flap, and a pedicled anterolateral thigh perforator flap for reconstruction. The postoperative course was uneventful apart from a postoperative seroma which was treated with aspiration. He underwent adjuvant radiation following full recovery
