Hidradenocarcinoma

Clear cell hidradenocarcinoma

Hidradenocarcinoma (also known as malignant hidradenoma, malignant acrospiroma, clear cell eccrine carcinoma, or primary mucoepidermoid cutaneous carcinoma) is a malignant adnexal tumor of the sweat gland. It is the malignant variant of the benign hidradenoma. It may develop de novo or in association with an existent hidradenoma.^[1]

This type of tumor typically develops in older individuals (after age 40).^[2]
