Resumen
JIMENEZ REYES, Walgener; LAMBERT MARESMA, María Zeidy y SOTOLONGO ARGUELLES, Yuniet. Malignant Nodular Hidradenoma. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2022, vol.61, n.1 Epub 25-Mar-2022. ISSN 1561-2945.
Introduction:
Malignant nodular hidradenoma is a rare malignant eccrine sweat gland tumor considered a lesion of eccrine adnexal differentiation, which usually arises again, although a few arising cases on nodular hidradenoma have been described. In other words, it represents the malignant counterpart of nodular hidradenoma.
Objective:
To report a case, given the unusual occurrence of this entity, with a review of the criteria for its diagnosis.
Case report:
We report the case of a 74-year-old man with a neoformation in the right parietal region of the scalp.
Conclusions:
We should consider a malignant nodular hidradenoma when faced with a solitary, firm or fluctuant tumor, rare in the scalp, with aggressive evolution, recurrences and lymph node metastasis, and confirm its diagnosis with immunohistochemical study.
