Scope note: Neoplasia cutánea poco frecuente que ocurre en ancianos. Se desarrolla con mayor frecuencia en las mujeres y afecta predominantemente a las áreas que poseen glándulas apocrinas, especialmente la vulva, el escroto, y el área perianal. Las lesiones se desarrollan como placas eritematosas y escamosas que progresan a placas costrosas, pruriginosas y eritematosas. El diagnóstico diferencial clínico comprende el carcinoma de células escamosas in situ y las infecciones micóticas superficiales. En general, piensa que es un adenocarcinoma de la epidermis, desde la cual se extiende al epitelio contiguo de los folículos pilosos y conductos sudoríparos ecrinos.

Scope note: A rare cutaneous neoplasm that occurs in the elderly. It develops more frequently in women and predominantly involves apocrine gland-bearing areas, especially the vulva, scrotum, and perianal areas. The lesions develop as erythematous scaly patches that progress to crusted, pruritic, erythematous plaques. The clinical differential diagnosis includes squamous cell carcinoma in situ and superficial fungal infection. It is generally thought to be an adenocarcinoma of the epidermis, from which it extends into the contiguous epithelium of hair follicles and eccrine sweat ducts.
