Abstract

Hidradenoma is a rare benign adnexal sweat gland tumor with eccrine or apocrine differentiation. In the skin, it is usually in the form of a solitary skin nodule. The treatment is complete surgical resection with healthy margins, given the high rate of recurrence and the possibility of malignant transformation. We report a case.
