Popis: Eccrine syringofibroadenoma (EFAS) is a rare benign tumor that originates from the eccrine sweat glands. It has a predilection for the extremities of elderly individuals and may arise in association with various acquired or hereditary diseases and neoplastic skin disorders.We report the case of a 48-year-old man who had been quadriplegic due to transverse myelitis for 30 years, with a rapidly progressive plantar tumor that was difficult to diagnose.
