Abstract

Hidradenoma is a rare benign neoplasm, with few cases reported to involve the eyelid. When affecting the eyelid, hidradenomas may mimic other benign or malignant lesions. Rarely, a benign hidradenoma may transform into a malignant hidradenoma and metastasize. The authors present a case of a benign hidradenoma arising from the eyelid, presenting with rapid growth, ulceration, and bleeding, suggestive of a malignant lesion.<br />Competing Interests: The authors have no financial or conflicts of interest to disclose.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Inc.)
