Clear cell hidradenocarcinoma of the eyelid: a case report with a review of the literature

Abstract: Clear cell hidradenocarcinomas are extremely rare neoplasms, with very few well-documented cases reported in the literature. The most common sites are the head and neck regions. These tumors are histologically malignant but are not always aggressive. They are known for recurrence and may metastasize widely. Treatment is wide local resection. We report on a case of clear cell hidradenocarcinoma occurring over the eyelid together with a review of the literature.

“…There are no precise clinical features differentiating the tumor from other adnexal neoplasms. [ 2 ] The clinical differentials include lipomas, hemangiomas, malignant melanoma, dermatofibrosarcoma, other adnexal neoplasms like poroma, cylindroma, and metastatic tumors to the skin. Hidradenomas are characterized by nests, ductular lumens and nodules of monomorphous polyhedral neoplastic epithelial cells in the dermis, the cells have morphological similarity with those of acrospiromas, which include poromas, dermal duct tumors, clear cell hidradenomas and hidroacanthoma simplex.…”

“…Meistens entwickelt sich ein Hidradenokarzinom im Gesicht oder an den Extremitäten. Es kann aber grundsätzlich auch an anderen Lokalisationen vorkommen inklusive Kopfhaut, Lippen, Hals, Thoraxwand, Brust, Rücken, Beine, Zehen und Vulva [28]. Es zeigt sich meist ein anfangs harmlos erscheinender ca.…”
