A carcinoma with eccrine differentiation arising from the sweat glands. It may arise de novo or as a malignant transformation of a pre-existing poroma. It usually grows in the legs, buttocks, feet, and trunk and usually presents as an ulcerative plaque.

It may recur after excision and metastasize to the lymph nodes and less frequently to distal anatomic sites.
