Eccrine Acrospiroma ia a cutaneous tumor of sweat gland ,usually small 1 to 2 cm with range from 0.5 cm to 12 cm. Mostly found in head, trunk and upper limbs with slight female predilection 3,4,5. We describe a large 5.5cm x 3cm, x 1cm erythmatous, grapelike pedunculated tumor in the postauricular region of a 55 year old female. The lesion was managed with adequate excision and defect was closed with rhomboid flap. A diagnosis of benign eccrine acrospiroma was made after immunohistochemistry. There was no local recurrence ten months after the operation.
