It is frequently seen in association with other benign adnexal lesions, such as nevus sebaceous, apocrine nevus, tubular apocrine adenoma, apocrine hidrocystoma, apocrine cystadenoma, and clear cell syringoma. The unusual reported locations of SCAP include the head and neck, the buttock, the vulva, the scrotum, the pinna, the eyelid, the outer ear canal, the forehead, the back, the scalp, the thigh, the nipple, the axilla, and the postoperative scar. The occurrence of SCAP in the right lower abdomen is distinctly uncommon. Herein, we report an unusual case of a 41-year-old man with SCAP occurring in the right lower abdomen that did not develop malignancy, despite a long disease course and an absence of medical treatment. The clinical and histopathologic features and the differential diagnosis of SCAP are also discussed. Keywords: adnexal, skin tumor, benign
