Abstract
Introduction: Spiradenocarcinomas an extremely rare malignant neoplasm. Most often arises from a preexisting solitary benign spiroadenoma. Most of the lesions often appear on the trunk, limbs and unusually, on the region of the scalp near the pinna. Objective:To describe a case of a patient who was diagnosed with spiroadenoma. Design:Case report. Methods: We present the case of an elderly patient with a progressive growth mass on the scalp near the pinna. Results: Imaging studies in conjunction with histopathology allowed to evidence a malignant tumor lesion derived from skin annexes and complicated with an infection process and secondary myiasis. We told him the importance of performing surgery but the family refused this procedure. Conclusion: We report an extremely rare case of a spiroadenocarcinoma of the scalp near the pinna; this is the first case reported in Colombia.
