An 18 years old male presented with a slowly increasing multiple papulonodular lesions on his left leg since birth. No definite diagnosis was made on clinical ground. But verrucous epidermal naevus with secondary change and appendageal tumor was suspected on clinical examination. Histopathological examination revealed syringocystadenoma papilliferm (SCAP). SCAP is very rare on lower leg. Only one case of SCAP on lower leg has been reported in literature so far, which was superimposed on an organoid nevus. The case is reported for unusual location and unusual presentation.
