“…It represents 1% of primary cutaneous tumors. Females between the age of twenty and fifty are at the biggest risk of developing these tumors [3]. Although no etiological factor has been determined, the presence of estrogen receptors in benign nodular hidradenomas and the predominance in females suggest a possible role of these hormones in the development of the tumors [1].…”

“…The histopathological diagnosis is difficult because of the different clinical signs and the variable prevalence of various components, yet the clear-cell form is the most common. The histological features of hidradenoma include a cystic cavity lined with an epithelium with a hyalinized stroma and polygonal cells with clear cytoplasm [1,3,5].…”

Sir, Nodular hidradenoma is a rare, benign adnexal tumor usually located in the head, neck, and extremities [1]. The difficulty of the diagnosis is due to the non-specificity of the clinical and histological presentation, often requiring a clinicopathological correlation [2]. Herein, we report a case of atypical abdominal hidradenoma mimicking lipoma. Our patient was a 51-year-old Moroccan female operated for bowel obstruction and fibroma presenting with a slowly growing, painless, subcutaneous abdominal nodule persistent for the last two years. The nodule had gradually increased in size in a context of apyrexia and general state preservation. A clinical examination was remarkable for a subcutaneous nodule (2.5 cm long axis) at the left iliac fossa, painless, indurated, and not fixed to the deep tissues, with slightly purplish skin (Fig. 1). The rest of the examination was featureless. In addition, dermoscopy was non-specific.
