Zusammenfassung:The chondroid syringoma is a rare benign tumor, also called mixed cutaneous tumor by the presence of epithelial and mesenchymal components, consisting of sweat elements in cartilaginous, collagenous, myxoid or osseous stroma, among others. It mainly affects middle-aged men and is characterized by asymptomatic and slowgrowing, dermal or subcutaneous nodules. The most common locations are the head and neck. It is rare on the extremities. There are reports of malignant variants predominantly in women, located on the extremities. We report a case of a female patient with a lesion on the toe, with excellent outcome after surgical treatment. O siringoma condroide é um tumor benigno, raro, também chamado de tumor misto cutâneo pela presença de componentes epiteliais e mesenquimais, que consistem em elementos sudoríparos em estroma cartilaginoso, colagênico, mixoide ou ósseo, entre outros. Acomete, principalmente, homens de meia-idade e caracteriza-se por nódulos subcutâneos ou dérmicos, assintomáticos e com crescimento lento. As localizações preferenciais são a cabeça e o pescoço, sendo raro nas extremidades. Existem relatos de variantes malignas, com predomínio em mulheres, localizadas nas extremidades. Relatamos um caso em paciente do sexo feminino, com lesão em extremidade e excelente resultado após o tratamento cirúrgico.
