Spiradenoma, also spiroma[1][2] or eccrine spiradenoma,[3] is a cutaneous condition that is typically characterized, clinically, as a solitary, deep-seated dermal nodule around 1 cm, occurring on the ventral surface of the body.[4]: 666 [5] Spiradenoma lesions are benign sudoriferous tumors,[6] and have also been described as cystic epitheliomas of the sweat glands.[7]

The histological origin is controversial.[3][6]
