Abstract
This paper reports the case of a 26-year-old Caucasian male with an aggressive digital papillary adenocarcinoma of his right index finger. Aggressive digital papillary adenocarcinoma is a rare tumour arising from sweat glands which occurs characteristically on the hands, fingers and toes. It has a high rate of local recurrence and can metastasise, occasionally resulting in mortality.
