Syringoma – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1091480008

Syringomata are small benign adnexal neoplasms that are almost always multiple. They are composed of sweat gland epithelium within adensely sclerotic stroma. They most commonly affect the eyelids and periocular skin as multiple 1-3 mm diameter firm smooth flesh-coloured papules. Less commonly a profusion of syringomata may erupt on the trunk as multiple small asymptomatic dermal papules (eruptive syringomata or hidradenomes éruptifs).
