Abstract
-
In the tumor, several histologic variants have been described including a rippled-pattern variant. The unique finding of rippled-pattern trichoblastoma is a peculiar arrangement of the basaloid cells in linear rows parallel to one another, resembling the palisading of nuclei of Verocay bodies. Only a few case reports of rippled-pattern trichoblastoma have been reported in the English literature, but there has been no report in the Korean literature. Herein we report two cases of rippled-pattern trichoblastoma.
