After a review of the bibliography on the subject of eccrine sweat gland carcinomas, the authors emphasize the confusing terminology used for the designation of these cases and the difficulties for a correct clinical and histological diagnosis of these tumors. According to the data obtained from the study of 7 personal cases, the most characteristic features of the eccrine carcinomas could be the following: 1) From the clinical standpoint--Appearance of a single tumour, lasting unmodified for a long period of time.--Tendency to reccurrence of the neighbouring areas after tumour excision, and to a slow progression through the superficial lymphatic channels.--Appearance of distant metastasis a long time after the original lesion. These metastases are observed, a) on the regional lymph nodes, b) on the superficial lymphatic channels and c) in some cases in the skin by intraepidermal growth. 2) From the histological point of view--Localisation in the deep dermis of the tumoral masses in the original lesion.--Acinar or tubular structures. Abundant nitoses and considerable indifferntiation of the cellular elements.--Tendency to the formation of empty peritumoral spaces separating the tumoral masses from the connective tissue by the retraction caused by the fixative.--Styloid or trabecular growth surrounding the main mass of the tumor.--Two types of cells can be observed in some tumours; large cells with a clear cytoplasm and small deeply-stained cells resembling the mioepithelial cells.--Tendency to the formation of clear cell tumoral masses.--Squamous metaplasia of isolated cells or groups of cells.--Presence of PAS-positive cytoplasmatic granulations in some cellular elements.--Degenerative changes with secondary cystic formations.--Frequent features of tumoral lymphangitis. 3y From theions.--Frequent features of tumoral lymphangitis. 3) From the cytological standpoint Staining in yellow of the cytoplasms of the tumour cells with the Panpanicolau method. 4) From the ultrastructural standpoint--Impossibility of classifiying the cells into serous or mucous due to the considerable anaplasia.--Absence of eccrine-apocrine differentiation, of ductal formation and of embrionary sweat cell features.
