Yes, well done, this is primary cutaneous cribriform apocrine carcinoma. This is a recent case which came to me in routine sign out. It is the first such case I have personally seen, so I think it must be rather uncommon. But the histology is so distinctive, and remarkably similar to this publication: Rutten A, et al. J Am Acad Dermatol 2009;61:644-51. The patient also seems to fit into the correct dermographic group.

I did request some immunos, but not really convinced that these took me much further forward. CK7, in particular, was positive (shown below).

I must admit that the histology looked so typical that I don't think this is a metastasis.
