Clear-Cell Dermal Duct Tumor: Case Report and Literature Review.

Clear-cell dermal duct tumor is a benign adnexal neoplasm composed of dermal multiple solid islands of clear cells, displaying ductal differentiation. Histopathologically, lesions can be subdivided into 2 distinct subgroups: (1) "pure" clear-cell dermal duct tumors, entirely composed of clear cells, and (2) "mixed" clear-cell dermal duct tumors, showing an associated conventional poroid component. Such a subclassification may be significant for the differential diagnosis: the less frequent "mixed" variant may be more easily recognized because of the presence of poroid and cuticular cells and the more frequent "pure" variant is to be distinguished from many other benign and malignant dermal clear-cell epithelial tumors.
