Abstract

The eccrine poroma is a rare benign sudoral tumour, which creates a fleshy formation. The diagnosis is made according to the anatomopathological study. The usual site is the sol, but in rare cases, other sites have also been reported. The authors report three cases of eccrine poroma localised in the scalp with literature review.
