A Case of Proliferating Trichilemmal Tumor
Abstract
- Proliferating trichilernmal tumor is a rare benign solitary tumor that may be histopathologically misinterpreted as squarnous cell carcinoma. It affects frequently the scalp of elderly women. We present herein a case of proliferating trichilemmal tumor in an 87-year-old male who had had a slowly growing tumor on the scalp for 30 years.
