Agree, eccrine porocarcinoma. Some figures show coexisting hidroacanthoma simplex and eccrine poroma.

Yes, my first impression is porocarcinoma, arising from a precursor hidroacanthoma simplex manifesting focal pigmentation and borst jaddason phenomenon (image 4).

Agree with Porocarcinoma and the hidroacanthoma simplex component.

Dr. Mark Hurt is probably correct. There is no ductal differentiation in figures 2 and 4, that probably correspond to seborrheic keratosis, clonal in figure 2. Presence of melanin and transitional cells at the border of abnormal nests also favor clonal seborrheic keratosis.The large lumens seen in several figures may represent residual eccrine duct lumens. Now, porocarcinoma as a second possibility.

I reported this as poroma, porocarcinoma and background clonal seborrhoeic keratosis. The top two images show the typical raining down pattern of poroma (benign on upper right) and porocarcinoma (in situ) pushing borders lower and left. There is clear cut ductal differentiation in the images on the left side (and in other images I took - not shown). Ki67 was markedly increased in areas of porocarinoma in situ and p53 was null in these areas (wild type in the poroma and adjacent seborrhoeic keratosis. Hopefully the dermpathpro team will post the IHC which should have been done at 4pm on friday. As a general comment it can be difficult at times to distinguish poroid SEBK from poroma and indeed Bowen's from bowenoid porocarcinoma and arguably the latter is academic. I have seen a number of SEBK in association with both bowen's and porocarcinoma and indeed one rare case of all three with additional sebaceous differentiation (bowenoid sebaceous carcinoma)!! As an aside I have noticed that a majority of clonal lesions (benign and malignant) arise on the legs. Hope you all enjoyed your weekends.
