“…Nodular hidradenoma, also called acrospiroma, is a benign tumor derived from the sweat glands . Clinically, these tumors present as painless solitary erythematous or violaceous nodules on the head, trunk, limbs, or oral cavity, which rarely show malignant transformation . Their differential clinical diagnosis is wide and includes some variants of dermatofibromas, angiomatous tumors, ganglion cysts, and malignant tumors such as basal cell carcinomas (BCCs), squamous cell carcinomas, and melanomas, among others .…”

Nodular hidradenomas are benign sweat gland-derived tumors that can produce clinical and dermatoscopic misdiagnoses. Histologically, these tumors can be classified into eccrine and apocrine subtypes. We present the sonographic characteristics of 6 cases of apocrine nodular hidradenomas, which, to our knowledge, is so far the largest series reported. A detailed sonographic analysis included layers, body location, shape, diameters, echostructure patterns, and vascularity. Two sonographic signs not previously reported in these or other common dermatologic lesions were detected: "snow falling" and "fluid-fluid level." The sonographic characteristics of apocrine nodular hidradenomas can support their earlier and more precise diagnosis.

“…CCH is a benign tumor of skin appendage that arises from the distal excretory duct of eccrine sweat glands on the skin of head, face, and upper extremities [4]. It is first termed as eccrine acrospiroma, where "spiroma" means adenoma of sweat glands and "acro" means the topmost or end [1].…”

“…Lesions in children are very rare [2,3]. They are usually seen as solitary, well-defined, non-encapsulated, slowly growing tumor in the dermal layer of head, face, and extremities; rarely show aggressive clinical behavior and malignant transformation [4]. Very few cases of groin CCH are documented in the literature.…”

Nodular hidradenomas are benign sweat gland-derived tumors that can produce clinical and dermatoscopic misdiagnoses. Histologically, these tumors can be classified into eccrine and apocrine subtypes. Clear cell hidradenoma is a rare benign eccrine tumor, it's representing 1% of all skin tumors, found mainly in adult females. The lesions are usually solitary and are most likely to be found on the scalp, face or anterior trunk. We report a case of clear cell hidradenoma developing in the inguinal area in a 68-year old man, which occurred during the course of nine months. The clinical and histologic findings of the tumor are documented. The lesion was totally removed by excision and revealed no evidence of recurrence. Through this case, we would like to highlight the unusual location of this hidradenoma.

“…Most commonly these cysts are clinically diagnosed as sebaceous cysts which is a misnomer and should be regularly confirmed by histopathological examination. A sebaceous cyst is preferably described as either an epidermal inclusion cyst or trichilemmal (pilar) cyst [3,4,5,6].…”

Background: Cutaneous cysts are the most common lesions encountered in surgical practice withcosmetic and psychological concern to the patient. Aim: To establish the clinicopathologicalcorrelation of these lesions and also the importance of histological evaluation for the prevention ofmisdiagnosing a benign-appearing malignant lesion. Methods: A retrospective descriptive studywith data collected from archives of histopathology from January 2018 to December 2020 ofclinically diagnosed cutaneous cyst along with age, gender, location and histopathological evaluationwere analysed. Results: 88 cases that were clinically diagnosed as cutaneous cysts had a higherfemale proportion 52.3%. The most common clinical diagnosis is epidermal/ sebaceous cyst. 35.2%of cases were clinically diagnosed accurately but 64.8% of cases did not correlate with clinicaldiagnosis. 4 malignant lesions were misdiagnosed as benign cutaneous cyst clinically. Conclusion:Most often clinically diagnosed cutaneous cysts are not sent for histopathological evaluation which isa very important tool to confirm the diagnosis.
