A New Case of Hybrid Epidermoid and Apocrine Cyst

Abstract

We described a new case of a hybrid epidermoid and apocrine cyst, known to be a rare histopathological entity. The cyst was located in the axillary region and completely excised, without complication. The diagnosis was made at the histological analysis, where we found a cystic lesion in the dermis, lined with both epidermoid and apocrine epithelium.
