    TLDR Most skin adnexal tumors are benign and require histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.
    The study conducted over 9.5 years included 72 cases of skin adnexal tumors, revealing that the majority (98.6%) were benign, with only one malignant case. The tumors primarily originated from sweat glands (65.3%), followed by hair follicles (30.6%) and sebaceous glands (4.1%). The research highlights that skin adnexal tumors, though rare, are often misdiagnosed clinically, emphasizing the importance of histopathological examination as the gold standard for accurate diagnosis and improved patient management.
