Abstract
Eccrine carcinomas are very rare, comprising only less than 0.005 % of all cutaneous carcinomas, as reported by Goellner et al. (Cancer 56:1147-1162, 1985). We are reporting a case of recurrent eccrine porocarcinoma (EPC) with regional lymph nodal metastasis, which arose on a Bowen's disease patch. Wide local excision of the lesion with lymph node dissection and excision of the Bowen's disease was done.
