Abstract
- Nodular hidradenoma is a relatively infrequent benign tumor that shows differentiation from or toward the structure of the eccrine sweat gland. We report a case of nodular hidradenoma with apocrine differentiation in a 74-year old female who had an asymptomatic, 3.5x2.7x1.0cm-sized, smooth-surfaced, round, erythematous to bluish tumor mass with cystic grape-like nature on the right thigh for 3 years. Histological findings showed a well-circumscribed tumor composed of solid portions with fusiform basophilic cells and clear round cells, cystic spaces, tubular lumina, squamoid feature and decapitation secretion.
