  • Title: Recurrent Giant Apocrine Hidrocystoma of the Leg: A Case Report.
    Author: Boddapati V, Aderibigbe T, Gimenez EV, Sarpong NO, Tyler WK.
    Journal: JBJS Case Connect; 2020; 10(3):e19.00608. PubMed ID: 32668136.
    Abstract:
    CASE: A 26-year-old woman developed a painful enlarging mass in her left leg over the course of 4 years. Marginal resection and local adjuvant therapy was undertaken, and pathology confirmed the mass to be an apocrine hidrocystoma. CONCLUSION: Giant apocrine hidrocystomas with osseous involvement outside of the head and neck are extremely rare. Although these tumors have a low recurrence rate, this case presents a single giant apocrine hidrocystoma that recurred and was successfully treated.
