Abstract
Hidradenoma is an uncommon skin tumor, representing 1% of all skin tumors, that originates from the duct of sweet gland and remains exceptional in children. Our case report describes the case of a 12-year-old girl patient with a mass on the anterior aspect of the right forearm for two years. The ultrasound examination did not reveal any abnormalities. Histopathological examination was performed and revealed monomorphic, clear, and rich in glycogen cell clusters with glandular cavities and anastomosing digitations, suggesting hidradenoma. Surgical excision had been done with a safety margin of 1 cm with a good evolution over a 12-month period. The authors propose a literature review based on this clinical observation.
