Abstract

Clear cell syringoma has histologic characteristics of clear cells and is known to coexist with diabetes mellitus. Two patients visited our clinic due to asymptomatic skin colored papules around the eyelids. A 68-year-old woman had an increasing number of skin lesions which had initially developed 40 years previously. A 71-year-old woman had a skin lesion which had been found 1 year previously. On past medical history, they were diagnosed as having contracted diabetes mellitus 20 and 30 years previously, respectively.
