Clear cell hidradenoma is an uncommon benign skin appendageal tumor that typically involves the dermal layer of the head, face, and extremities. The breast is a rare site for this lesion, with only two documented cases, which were determined based on mammogram and sonogram findings. We present a case of clear cell hidradenoma of the axillary tail with radiological findings and a literature review.

“…The standard radiography did not show any particular abnormalities. The ultrasound easily realizable for all the localizations of the hidradenoma showed in our first case a well-individualized cystic mass with multiple fleshy vascularized doppler buds, But this is not the case for all hidradenomas, especially those that sit superficially in the subcutaneous tissue as well as in the fingers [5]. At MRI, nodular hidradenoma often appears as a mixed mass associating a solid part with another liquid.…”

“…In some cases, there is only one solid part. The tumor signal usually hypo T1 and hyper T2 may have a distribution influenced by the cholesterol level in the hidradenoma, the composition of the secretion product of the sweat glands and the possible existence of intra-tumor bleeding; Thus the bleeding can pass the signal in T1 from hypo to hyper [5]. The imaging of the hidradenoma with clear cells has no particular aspect according to our bibliographic references…”

Hidradenoma is a rare benign tumor that develops of the eccrine sweat glands. We report here two cases of benign giant hidradenoma with a clear cell variant in one case and nodular in the other. The tumor was localized on the forearm in a patient aged 6 years and in the foot in a 14-year-old child. An excisional biopsy was performed in both patients. Evolution was marked by a good outcome without recurrence. We try through this paper to review an uncommon tumor which his eccrine origin is controversial and which biological behavior was badly known.

IntroductionMucous cyst is the commonest soft tissue tumor in the dorsum of the distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) of the finger. We report the first case of a recurring eccrine tumor (nodular hidradenoma), mimicking a mucous/ganglion cyst, on the dorsum of the DIPJ.Case reportA 54 year old man presented with painless, hemispherical, colored swelling on the dorsum of his right middle finger (dominant hand), which appeared to have recurred from a previous surgery. The lesion was excised and operative findings from the medical notes showed the gross appearance to be a soft, white, glistening, smooth-surfaced, myxoid nodule resembling a “ganglion cyst”. Immunohistochemistry showed the tumour to be positive for S100, smooth muscle actin and cytokeratin 7. Ductal differentiation was confirmed by staining for epithelial membrane antigen and carcinoembryonic antigen. The histological features were that of atypical and solid cystic hidradenoma.DiscussionThis is the first reported case of this rare tumour presenting as mucous cyst. We conduct a review of the literature of nodular hidradenomas, illustrating the immunohistologic findings in this tumour to emphasise the atypical features.We emphasise the importance of considering hidradenoma in the differential diagnosis of such lesions of the finger, in view of its high recurrence rate and the possibility of malignant transformation.
