Chondroid syringoma is a rare benign skin mixed tumor, with a prevalence of approximately 0,01% of skin tumors. Eighty percent of chondroig syringoma are found in the elderly, and the ratio is two women for every man. Often found in the head and neck, especially on the scalp, face and nose. Typical clinical presentation of these tumours is a slow-growing, painless, firm, nonulcerated cutaneous or intracutaneous nodule (0.5-3 cm in size). This article reports a case of a lesion in the left upper lip area.

Keywords : Chondroid syringoma; Skin mixed tumor.
