A 50 years old male had swelling in the left groin of eight years duration. The swelling got ulcerated and became painful for the past 15 days. 'Mere was a similar swelling over the sterior aspect of left thigh about 20 years ago. PO It was removed and the operated area healed well. The clinical examination revealed the presence of an irregular lobulated swelling 6 inches by 4 inches in the region of left groin. The skin over the swelling was tethered and at one area it got ulcerated. Each lobule was about the size of a lime, firm in consistency andessentially adherent to each other with few discrete ones. The whole mass was freely mobile over the deeper structures. There was a solitary, isolated circumscribed swelling (2 inches in diameter) over the medial aspect of left thigh. The skin was tethered to the swelling which was firm and freely mobile. Histopathological appearances were suggestive of syringoma, arising from the apocrine gland structures.
