	~~{{clear}}~~		'''Acrospiroma''' is a type of [[skin tumor]] that originates from the [[sweat glands]]. These tumors are generally benign but can occasionally become malignant. Acrospiromas are part of a group of tumors known as [[sweat gland tumors]], which also includes [[hidradenoma]]s and [[poroma]]s.
	== ~~See also~~ ==
	* [[~~Hidradenocarcinoma~~]]		==Classification==
	* [[~~List of cutaneous conditions~~]]		Acrospiromas are classified based on their histological characteristics and their origin from the [[eccrine sweat glands]] or [[apocrine sweat glands]]. They are often divided into two main types:
	~~==External links==~~
	*~~{{Commonscatinline}}~~		* '''Eccrine acrospiroma''': Also known as [[hidradenoma]], these tumors arise from the eccrine sweat glands, which are responsible for thermoregulation.
	~~{{Tumors of skin appendages}}~~		* '''Apocrine acrospiroma''': These tumors originate from the apocrine sweat glands, which are associated with hair follicles and are found in areas such as the axillae and groin.

	~~{{Dermatology-stub}}~~		==Clinical Presentation==
	~~{{nt}}~~		Acrospiromas typically present as solitary, slow-growing nodules on the skin. They are most commonly found on the [[head]], [[neck]], and [[upper extremities]]. The nodules are usually firm and may be skin-colored, pink, or red. In some cases, they can become ulcerated or bleed.

			==Diagnosis==
			The diagnosis of acrospiroma is primarily based on [[histopathological]] examination. A [[biopsy]] of the lesion is performed, and the tissue is examined under a microscope. The histological features of acrospiroma include a well-circumscribed nodule with a mixture of solid and cystic areas. The tumor cells are typically small and uniform, with ductal differentiation.

			==Treatment==
			The primary treatment for acrospiroma is [[surgical excision]]. Complete removal of the tumor is usually curative, and recurrence is rare if the tumor is fully excised. In cases where the tumor is malignant, additional treatments such as [[radiation therapy]] or [[chemotherapy]] may be considered.

			==Prognosis==
			The prognosis for patients with acrospiroma is generally excellent, especially for benign tumors. Malignant acrospiromas, although rare, may have a more guarded prognosis and require more aggressive treatment.
