Background: Hidradenomas are benign adnexal neoplasms which were recently been subdivided into two groups: eccrine differentiation (poroid hidradenomas) or apocrine differentiation (clear cell hidradenomas) with the latter being rarer. These types of tumors have been associated with recurrence and malignant transformation, however; recurrence and malignancy are considered very rare. We present a case report of a 35-year-old male who presented with two lumps, clinically representing simple lipomas but one of them turned to be a hidradenoma.
