Abstrakt: Abstract: The distinction between digital papillary adenocarcinoma (DPAC) and benign cutaneous adnexal tumors is clinically important and can be challenging. Poroid hidradenoma frequently occurs at acral sites and can show a number of histological features, which overlap with digital papillary adenocarcinoma. Recent work has shown that YAP1-NUTM1 fusions are frequent in poroid hidradenoma and are associated with nuclear protein in testis (NUT) expression by immunohistochemistry. We evaluated the expression of NUT-1 by immunohistochemistry in 4 cases of DPAC and 4 cases of poroid hidradenoma. Three of 4 cases of poroid hidradenoma showed strong NUT-1 expression, with no staining in any of the cases of DPAC. These results suggest that NUT-1 immunohistochemistry may be a useful additional tool in evaluating this differential diagnosis.
