Abstract
- Trichofolliculoma is a benign, highly structured harmartoma of the pilosebaceous unit characterized by one or more large cystic follicles with smaller radiating follicular structures. This benign neoplasm appears in middle age and rarely occurs prior to early adult life. We report a case of congenital trichofolliculoma in a 10-day-old female neonate noted from birth.
