Poroid Hidradenoma: Case Report and Excision Rationale ()
ABSTRACT
Poroid hidradenoma is a benign eccrine neoplasm of the poroma family. We
report a 65-year-old male patient who presented to his general practitioner
with a poroid hidradenoma in zone 2 of the flexor surface of his left middle
finger. Diagnosis was confirmed histologically, after which the patient was
referred to us for wider excision. Although poroid hidradenoma is a benign
tumour, wide local excision is mandatory. Here we discuss the reasoning behind
this and present a rationale for excision margins.
