Abstract

Hidradenoma papilliferum (HP) is a rare, small, benign, cystic, papillary, slow growing tumour arising from the apocrine gland in the anogenital region of adult women. A 54-year-old patient had an asymptomatic nodule in the vulvar region for 3 months. Approximately a 1x1.5 cm nodular formation was observed on the left labium minus. In the pathological examination of the tissue removed by local excision, the diagnosis of the hidradenoma papilliferum was made. Hidradenoma papilliferum, which is a rare condition, has been presented in literature.
