BackgroundSweat gland carcinoma is an extremely rare skin cancer, which is hard to diagnose and completely exsect without causing functional and cosmetic problems. Moreover, the high rate of recurrence is hard to handle in the treatment of sweat gland carcinoma. Photodynamic therapy is a novel treatment protocol which can selectively destroy tumor cell with good functional and cosmetic outcomes.MethodsThis is a case about a 53 years old patient with sweat gland carcinoma on his right foot, which received surgery and photodynamic therapy.ResultsThere is no recurrence in one year after treatment of surgery and photodynamic therapy.ConclusionsExcision combined with photodynamic therapy during operation is a promising strategy towards tumors which is hard to exsect thoroughly and have a high risk of recurrence.
