Abstract
Two cases of eccrine tumour of sweat gland origin found in the hand are presented. They were on-tender rounded masses of eight months to two years duration, beneath and adherent to the pidermis but movable on underlying tissue. The pre-operative diagnosis in each case was that of sebaceous cyst. Histology revealed one to be an eccrine spiradenoma and the other a chondroid syringoma. The lesions were considered unusual in that such tumours usually occur on the trunk, head and back and are rarely found in the hand.
