Adnexal neoplasm is a tumor that develops in adnexal tissue. Adnexal means that accessories and adnexal tissues are the structures of accessories belonging to the organ. In the medical context, Adnexal is most often referred to the additional parts of the eye, uterus or skin, such as lids, ovaries and sweat glands, and adnex neoplasms may occur at any of these places. Adnexal tumor can be benign or malignant, although most are found to be benign. While the benign tumor does not spread and is not cancer, malignant tumor or malignancy is cancer and can attack the rest of the body if it is not treated.

There are many types of skin adnexal tumors, malignant and benign. Adnexal cells in the skin are found in sweat glands and hair follicles, and when these cells there are new growth or neoplasia, an adnex neoplasm is formed. In most cases, the adnexal skin tumor is cancer and the treatment will consist of surgical removal of the tumor.
