A case of an unusual benign apocrine hamartoma was studied by light microscopic, immunohistochemical, and electron microscopic methods. This tumor clinically showed a linear configuration and was located on the midline chest of a pubescent male. Microscopic studies revealed features of both a tubular apocrine adenoma and a syringocystadenoma papilliferum.
