Abstract: Hidradenitis suppurativa, also known as Verneuil’s disease, is a common pathological condition seen worldwide. It is typically characterized by recurrent nodular lesions developing around apocrine glands, often progressing to fistula formation. In this case, we describe an unusual presentation of HS, appearing as a mass that mimicked a tumoral process on imaging. The diagnosis was confirmed through histological examination. Surgical resection was performed with adequate oncologic margins. We highlight the importance of ensuring clear margins during any resection, particularly when dealing with suspicious lesions.
