Nodular hidradenoma is a rare benign sweat gland tumor arising from the apocrine glands. This tumor has a low incidence of neoplastic transformation and metastasis. The differential diagnosis of the malignant form of the tumor is extremely difficult not only because of their benign appearance but also because of their similarity to other cutaneous lesions. Some of the excised lesions initially diagnosed as a benign tumor may be proved to be a malignant transformation once reexamined after the recurrences and the metastasis have been occurred. Here, a case of a nodular hidradenoma with atypical demonstration on the face of an old male is presented.
