Hidradenoma Papilliferum (HP) is a rare benign appendageal tumor occurring mainly in the anogenital region of adult women. Diagnosis is based on histopathology due to the lack of specific clinical features. The treatment of choice is total excission. We describe a rare case of a 65-year-old woman who presented to our outpatient department with an enlarging nodule of the left labia majora of her vulva. The histological findings were consistent with the diagnosis of Hidradenoma Papilliferum.
