Özet
Malignant nodular hidradenoma (MNH) is a rare sweat gland tumor of the skin. The scalp is an uncommon site of occurrence. We, herein, present an 80-year-old woman whose slow-growing subcutaneous nodule on her scalp was diagnosed as malignant nodular hidradenoma after histopathologic examination. MNH is an aggressive tumor and should be diagnosed and excised as early as possible. Wide local excision is the treatment of choice. As early recurrence is common despite the wide excision close follow-up is necessary.
