Hidradenocarcinoma (HAC) is a rare malignant neoplasm originating from eccrine sweat glands, often presenting diagnostic challenges because of its resemblance to other malignancies, particularly breast cancer when occurring in the chest region. This report describes 2 cases of HAC with axillary lymph node metastasis, both initially misinterpreted clinically. The first case involved a 63-year-old woman with a sternal mass, near the right breast, initially suspected to be a sebaceous cyst.
