Apocrine Hidrocystoma of the FingerFrom the Department of Plastic Surgery, University Hospital Erasme, Brussels, Belgium Correspondence: S de Fontaine MD, Department of Plastic Surgery, University Hospital Erasme, 808 Route de Lennik, 1070 Brussels, Belgium. An apocrine hidrocystoma occurring on the finger of a 55-year-old man is reported. The lesion presented as a solitary, painless cystic nodule on the dorsal aspect of the middle phalanx of the index finger. Apocrine hidrocystoma is a benign tumour developed from apocrine sweat glands, but the location of the lesion was, however, not consistent with reported locations of apocrine glands in the adult.
