Trettiofyra patienter delades in i två grupper (localized and generalized syringoma) . Patienterna var mestadels kvinnor, de utgjorde nittiosju procent, med en medelålder på 28 år. Innan man sökte behandling hade lesionerna funnits i i genomsnitt sex år. Generalized syringoma påverkade främst bröstet och halsen, sedan underarmarna, medan localized syringoma främst återfanns i ansiktet, axillen och underlivet.
Thirty-four patients were sorted into two groups, localized and generalized syringoma, according to the Friedman and Butler classification. Ninety-seven percent of the patients were females with the mean age of 27.6 years. The mean duration of the lesions before the presentations was six years. Distribution of the generalized syringoma was mainly in the chest and neck followed by the forearms whereas localized syringoma was mostly confined to the face, axilla and genitalia.

Vår studie syftade till att beskriva de kliniska och histopatologiska egenskaperna hos sextioen patienter som diagnostiserats med syringom under en fyraårsperiod på vår dermatologiska klinik i Korea. Vi fann att syringom huvudsakligen drabbade kvinnor, med ett förhållande på 6,6 kvinnor till 1 man, och uppträdde vanligtvis under andra och tredje decennierna av livet hos mer än hälften av patienterna. Det vanligaste drabbade stället var ögonlocken (71 %) , och lesionerna var mestadels hudfärgade (49 %) . Vi observerade karakteristiska grodyngelliknande utseenden i 56% av fallen. Basal hyperpigmentering var vanligare i brunfärgade lesioner, medan fibros var vanligare vid erytematösa lesioner. Dessutom var keratincystor mindre vanliga i fall som involverade underlivet.
The purpose of our study was to describe clinical and histopathological features of sixty one patients with histological diagnosis of syringoma over four year period in our dermatology clinic in Korea. Female:male ratio was 6.6:1 with onset of age during 2nd and 3rd decades in more than half of the patients in our study. The most frequently involved site was eyelids (43 cases, 70.5%) and the most common color of lesion was skin-color (30 cases, 49.2%). In 34 cases, characteristic tad-pole appearances (55.7%) were observed. Basal hyperpigmentation was observed more frequently in brown-colored lesion (p=0.005). Fibrosis was observed more frequently in erythematous lesion (p=0.033). Keratin cyst was observed less frequently in genital involved group (p=0.006).
