description Malignant Nodular Hidradenoma otherwise designated as Hidradenocarcinoma is a malignant sweat gland tumor which mandates attention due to its rarity and its increased potential for local destruction and metastasis. Though it was first reported in 1954, only 70 cases have been documented till date as per review of literature.
