Abstract
- Hidradenoma papilliferum is a rare benign neoplasm that occurs almost exclusively on the skin of the female anogenital region. It is usually a slow-growing cystic dermal mass that can be either asymptomatic or ulcerate and bleed, and represents an adenoma with apocrine differentiation. We present a case of hidradenoma papilliferum in a 46-year old woman with a erythematous to brownish papule on the left labium majora and the typical histopathologic findings.
