Apocrine Cystadenoma

Presentation

These tumors rarely present in childhood or adolescence. [6] Clinically, these lesions may present similarly to eccrine hidrocystomas, epidermal inclusion cysts, mucoid cysts, hemangioma and lymphangioma and should be considered in the differential diagnoses [eyewiki.aao.org]

Treatment

Pathology interpretation by Obianuju Mercy Anelo MD, Nina Krassilnik MD at UTHSC-Memphis Treatment The most common treatment for apocrine hidrocystoma is surgical excision with narrow margins.[1] After excision, the prognosis is excellent due to the benign [eyewiki.aao.org]

Prognosis

(Anandasabapathy)[9] Prognosis Apocrine hidrocystomas are benign cystic lesions and therefore have no metastatic potential. Complete surgical excision offers excellent prognosis with minimal chance of recurrence. [eyewiki.aao.org]

Prognosis Apocrine hidrocystomas grow gradually and persist indefinitely after attaining full size. They seldom recur after removal. Apocrine hidrocystomas are entirely benign. Cysts may annoy patients; however, symptoms usually are mild or absent. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Etiology

[…] hidrocystomas are benign cystic tumors that arise from apocrine sweat glands. [1] In 1964, Mehregan first described apocrine hidrocystomas as cystic proliferations of the apocrine glands found typically in the head and neck region.[2][1] Though the etiology [eyewiki.aao.org]

Apocrine hidrocystomas are benign adnexal cystic tumors of unknown etiology. Possible causes include sweat duct occlusion or adenomatous cystic proliferation of apocrine glands (apocrine cystadenoma). [actasdermo.org]

Pathophysiology Although the origin of apocrine hidrocystomas is not known entirely, they are believed to be adenomatous cystic proliferations of the apocrine glands. The exact stimulus for the development of an apocrine hidrocystoma is unknown. [emedicine.medscape.com]
