Introduction: Chondroidsyringoma or apocrine mixed tumor is a benign skin tumor that usually manifests as a nodular lesion with slow growth and no symptoms in the head and neck area, and based on histologicalcharacteristics, it can be apocrine or eccrine. Tumor diagnosis is based on clinical features and histopathology and its treatment is surgical removal of the lesion.
Case report: In this study, we report a case of apocrine chondroidsyringoma in a 33-year-old man who presented with a complaint of an asymptomatic nodular lesion in the area above the upper lip, and after biopsy and histopathological examination, the diagnosis of apocrine chondroidsyringoma was made.
Conclusion: Chondroidsyringoma does not have a specific clinical manifestation and its diagnosis is challenging and is based on attention to histological features in addition to clinical manifestations. This tumor should be considered in the differential diagnosis for subcutaneous nodules, especially in the head and neck area.
