AI Article Synopsis

  • A clear cell hidradenoma is a rare skin tumor that typically comes from sweat glands and is usually found in the head, face, and upper limbs, measuring between 5-30 mm.
  • These tumors are not commonly large enough to affect joint movement, which is why they are rarely mentioned in orthopedic studies.
  • The case presented involves a 35-year-old male with a giant benign nodular hidradenoma that caused painful restriction in his right shoulder joint.

Article Abstract

A clear cell hidradenoma is a rare dermal tumor, which is believed to originate from the apical portion of the sweat glands. The usual size reported is 5-30 mm. It is generally found in the head, face, and upper extremity regions. This lesion has not been reported to be large enough to impinge a joint range of motion. Hence, its description in the orthopedic literature is extremely rare. We present a giant benign nodular hidradenoma presenting as painful restriction of the right shoulder joint in a 35-year-old male.

Introduction: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard surgical treatment to lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic obstruction (LUTS/BPO). Although it has been proven to have substantial efficacy in improving functional outcomes, it has shown a high incidence of complications, including transurethral resection syndrome, massive bleeding, urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunction. High-frequency irreversible electroporation (H-FIRE) is a novel non-thermal ablation technique that delivers pulsed high-voltage but low-energy electric current to the cell membrane, thereby leading to cell death.
