Abstract
Adnexal neoplasms of the eyelid encompass a wide variety of benign and malignant tumors of sebaceous, follicular, and sweat gland origin. Due to the specialized structures of the eyelid, these neoplasms present differently when compared with those of other locations. Although most dermatologists and ophthalmologists are familiar with the commonly reported adnexal tumors of the eyelid, such as hidrocystoma, pilomatrixoma, and sebaceous carcinoma, many other adnexal neoplasms have been reported at this unique anatomic site. Accurate and timely identification of these neoplasms is essential, as alterations of eyelid anatomy and function can have a negative impact on eye health, vision, and quality of life. We review the clinical and histopathologic features of common and rare eyelid adnexal neoplasms and discuss proposed treatment options.

Abstract
Syringoma is a common but refractory benign skin tumor. Conventional treatment, such as ultra-pulsed carbon dioxide (CO2 ) laser or cryotherapy, often requires multiple treatment and can easily cause prolonged erythema, scarring, or depression, which are frustrating, so there is an urgent need to seek a safer and more effective method. In this article, we tried to demonstrate the Er:YAG laser combined with botulinum toxin A (BTXA) as a safer and more efficacious method for treating syringomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one patients with local syringomas were treated with erbium laser ablation. Immediately after laser treatment, approximately 10 units of BTXA were sprayed on the wound for 10 min. RESULT In total, 21 patients underwent 1.62 ± 0.74 treatments; their Periorbital Syringoma Severity Index (PSSI) score declined from 4.19 (before treatment) to 1.10 (after treatment), and the number of treatments was significantly lower than those reported in previous literature using the erbium laser alone. CONCLUSION The Er:YAG laser combined with botulinum toxin A for the treatment of syringoma is a safer and more effective treatment than traditional treatment methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Eruptive syringomas is a rare variant of syringoma, which is a benign adenoma differentiated from the terminal ducts of the eccrine glands. Nowadays, it's widely valued because of obvious skin lesions, large scope of influence, and high misdiagnosis rate. OBJECTIVES We aim to explore the clinical features of eruptive syringomas and the current research progress. MATERIALS AND METHODS We firstly summarized the clinical features of 90 cases of eruptive syringomas. Then, the chi-square test was used to analyze the relationship between the onset site of eruptive syringomas and age, as well as gender. Finally, we briefly reviewed the previous literature. RESULTS During 12 years, 90 cases of eruptive syringomas were diagnosed in our hospital, including 28 males (31.1%) and 62 females (68.9%). The average diagnosed age was 28.8. Patients from 20 to 40 years old is 63 (70%), which is the most. 60 (66.7%) patients had the course for more than 1 year. Among onset sites, the neck, chest, and abdomen were in the top three. The chi-square test showed that there were no significant differences in the onset sites of patients aged ≤ 20 and >20 years old (p-value = 0.181), as well as male and female (p-value = 0.363). CONCLUSION We found that more female than male was affected, and the most common onset sites were the neck, chest, and abdomen. Neither age nor gender was significantly associated with onset site distribution. Our study provides some data support for the research of eruptive syringomas.

Abstract
Background Eruptive syringoma (ES) is a clinical variant of the appendageal tumor syringoma. Around 75% of ES arise in the head or neck, which makes them unsightly. ES is common in patients with amyloidosis, diabetes, and Down's syndrome, suggesting that it may be associated with potential systemic effects. ES is a rare tumor with the unclear pathogenesis and no effective treatment. Methods A PubMed search of ES was conducted. Plasma samples of patients with ES were acquired from the Department of Dermatology at Xi'an Jiaotong University's Second Affiliated Hospital. After removing highly abundant proteins, plasma samples were subjected to proteomics and metabolomics analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Results LC-MS/MS revealed 71 differentially expressed proteins and 18 differentially abundant metabolites. The functional analysis highlighted the importance of complement binding, coagulation, secretory granules and vesicle lumen. Further, the study revealed 15 hub genes associated with FGG, GC, APOE, FGA, FGB, C4A, C3, CRP, C4B, FLNA, TAGLN2, ANXA5, MYL6, MYL12B, and TLN1 organized into three clusters. The seed genes in each cluster were GC, FLNA, and MYL6. In addition, glycol metabolism was associated with variable abundance of serum metabolites, which explains the relatively high rate of ES among diabetics. Conclusion This study suggests that immunological inflammation and tumor glycol metabolism may play significant role in the pathophysiology of ES.

Abstract
Background Syringoma is a benign adnexal neoplasm and is considered safe with very low malignant potential. However, multiple tiny lesions typically affect the face and exposed area, which may cause a cosmetic concern for the patient. After a clinical diagnosis, there are two methods to diagnose syringoma: fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and histopathology. FNAC is generally used for the initial evaluation of syringoma, while histopathology is used as a confirmatory test to diagnose syringoma. In developing and resource-limited settings, the combination of FNAC and histopathology would cause a financial and logistics burden. Objective This study aimed to observe the cytological and histopathological features of cases clinically diagnosed as syringomas in a tertiary care hospital to suggest the use of either FNAC or histopathology for diagnosing syringoma. Materials and Methods This cross-sectional observational study was conducted in the Department of Dermatology and Department of Pathology of a tertiary care hospital in eastern India from November 2021 to April 2022. Any clinically provisionally diagnosed case of syringoma was recruited for the study after obtaining informed consent for voluntary participation. With aseptic precautions, the tissue aspirates and punch biopsy were obtained in the Department of Dermatology and the samples were sent to the Department of Pathology. Cytological and histological examination was conducted by a single expert pathologist. Result A total of 50 cases (36 female, 14 male) with a median age of 23 years (range 10-40 years) were included in the study. A total of 43 cases were presented with papular lesions and seven with nodules. In the majority of the cases (40%), the lesion was in the eyelid followed by 26% in the arm. In FNAC, 22 cases were found to be benign adnexal lesions, 16 were suggestive of syringoma, eight were diagnosed as xanthoma, two were diagnosed as warts, and two cases were inadequate for opinion. Histologically, 42 cases were confirmed as syringoma, six were diagnosed as xanthoma, and two cases were diagnosed as warts. There was a significant difference between diagnosis by FNAC and histopathology (McNemar χ2 = 24.038, p-value = 0.0001). Conclusion We found that FNAC and histopathological diagnosis of syringoma may not be corroborative. Benign adnexal lesions are difficult to categorize by FNAC. Histopathological examination of clinically diagnosed cases of syringoma is of help for definitive diagnosis. Hence, FNAC may be avoided for saving time and discomfort for the patients and clinically diagnosed cases may be diagnosed by histopathological examination.

Abstract
Syringoma is a benign adnexal tumor of eccrine origin. Eruptive syringoma (ES) is a rare variant and can mimic other diseases especially lichen planus (LP). The dermoscopic observation of ES is not well described. We report here a case of ES, initially misdiagnosed as LP. The dermoscopic findings showed fine reticulate brown lines on a light brown background contrarily to the findings usually seen in LP. These findings prompt a skin biopsy which subsequently confirmed the diagnosis of ES. The use of dermoscopy in ES can be useful and may help differentiate it from other diseases.

Abstract
Background Reporting quality of systematic reviews and meta-analyses is of critical importance in dermatology because of their key role in informing health care decisions. Objective To assess the compliance of systematic reviews and meta-analyses in leading dermatology journals with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) statement guidelines. Methods This review was carried out in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Included studies were reviews published across 6 years in the top 4 highest-impact-factor dermatology journals of 2017. Records and full texts were screened independently. Data analysis was conducted with univariate multivariable linear regression. The primary outcome was to assess the compliance of systematic reviews and meta-analyses in leading dermatology journals with the PRISMA statement. Results A total of 166 studies were included and mean PRISMA compliance across all articles was 73%. Compliance significantly improved over time (β = .016; P = <.001). The worst reported checklist item was item 5 (reporting on protocol existence), with a compliance of 15% of articles. Conclusion PRISMA compliance within leading dermatology journals could be improved; however, it is steadily improving.

Abstract
Adnexal tumors of the skin are a rare group of benign and malignant neoplasms that exhibit morphological differentiation toward one or more of the adnexal epithelium types present in normal skin. Tumors deriving from apocrine or eccrine glands are highly heterogeneous and represent various histological entities. Macroscopic and dermatoscopic features of these tumors are unspecific; therefore, a specialized pathological examination is required to correctly diagnose patients. Limited treatment guidelines of adnexal tumor cases are available; thus, therapy is still challenging. Patients should be referred to high-volume skin cancer centers to receive an appropriate multidisciplinary treatment, affecting their outcome. The purpose of this review is to summarize currently available data on pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment approach for apocrine and eccrine tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional treatment options for periorbital syringomas are often unsatisfactory because of inevitable surface damage from the procedure and frequent recurrence rate of the tumors. OBJECTIVES The authors sought to ascertain the efficacy and safety of intralesional electrosurgery utilizing a monopolar radiofrequency device with a single insulated microneedle for the treatment of periorbital syringomas. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed employing data from medical records, routine questionnaires, and clinical photographs of 55 patients with periorbital syringoma who underwent intralesional electrosurgery. RESULTS Approximately one-half of the patients (50.9%) experienced marked resolution after 1 treatment. The lesion clearance rate increased and lesion severity decreased each time the treatment was repeated. No persistent therapy-related adverse event was found except transient erythema or crusting. CONCLUSIONS Intralesional electrosurgery with insulated microneedle is an effective and safe treatment option for periorbital syringomas. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the application of reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) imaging in diagnosis of vulva syringoma. Methods: Patients with lesions suspicious of syringoma on vulva were enrolled in the study. After informed consent was taken, the lesions were photographed and imaged with RCM. The features of the lesion in confocal images were then analyzed and compared with the biopsy findings for histology correlation. Results: Eleven cases in total were included in the study. The typical RCM features observed in syringoma are the presence of round to oval high refractive, and relatively monomorphous mass of varying sizes in the superficial and middle dermis, usually surrounded with 1–2 layers of light-dark line structures, which were further confirmed by histological evaluation. Ten cases showed classic features of syringoma and 1 case exhibited milia in RCM images. Conclusions: Syringoma has distinct features in RCM imaging, which correlates well with histological findings, highlighting the potential role of RCM in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of vulva syringoma.

Abstract
Epidermal inclusion cyst (EIC) and syringoma are both benign lesions that are primarily asymptomatic and occur at various places on the body. Although both EIC and syringoma are common, their joint appearance has not been previously reported. These benign proliferations target different populations, and with differing clinical presentations. Syringomas tend to develop in young females as smaller multiple lesions, while EICs often present in older males as single or multiple variants that are typically larger in size. They also possess distinctive histopathological appearances that can used for their diagnosis. Furthermore, despite both having unclear etiologies, the involvement of the eccrine duct has been a proposed mechanism in the development of both lesions. Thus, further investigation of eccrine ducts in the pathology of these lesions can be the basis for assessing the association between EICs and syringomas. We report a unique case of a 16-year-old boy who presented to the clinic with multiple cysts (at least 20) on the scrotum, most of which consisted of both EIC and syringoma histologically. We are not aware of any previous reports of patients with multiple combined syringomas and EICs, and their potential association should be further explored.

Abstract
Syringomas are benign, eccrine sweat gland tumors frequently found on the eyelids and neck in post-pubescent women and may present in healthy individuals or be associated with various medical comorbidities. We present a case of an otherwise healthy 19-year-old female with an abrupt onset of disseminated syringomas on the bilateral forearms and dorsal hands. Eruptive acral syringomas have not been previously reported in adolescents, and this diagnosis should be considered in patients presenting with a papular eruption on the hands and forearms.

Abstract
Mixed tumor of the skin (MTS) is a rare benign tumor of the sweat glands with a reported frequency of 0.01% to 0.098%. The objective of the study is to investigate clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of mixed tumor of the skin.This was a retrospective study of 21 patients diagnosed with MTS at the Institute of Dermatology and Venereology of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from 1980 to 2016. Pathological sections of all cases were reread and the diagnosis was verified.There were 14 males (67%) and 7 females (33%). MTS affected the face. The lesions were skin-colored or lightly red, with no subjective symptoms in most cases. Histopathologically, the tumors consisted of epithelial and interstitial components. The epithelium was mainly composed of cubic or polygonal cells, which can be seen within the tubule-like structures with bilayer epithelium. The inner cells mainly expressed cytokeratin and other epithelial markers. The outer cells expressed epithelial and mesenchymal markers. The outer cells expressed S-100, P63, and glial fibrillary acidic protein. The tumors showed interstitial mucus-like and fibrosis changes, and some parts had cartilage-like changes.Pathological diagnosis is particularly important because the clinical symptoms of MTS lack specificity.

Abstract
Syringomas are benign appendageal tumors originated from eccrine ducts. The lesions usually present as multiple small, firm papules at lower eyelids and cheeks of women. Plaque-type syringoma is an infrequent form of syringoma and to date, 12 cases have been reported. Pathology demonstrated benign proliferation of eccrine ductal structures in the dermis with surrounding fibrotic stroma. We report the case of a 40-year-old Thai male with plaque-type syringomas at infraorbital areas.
