Abstract
Tricholemmoma is a benign follicular tumor with differentiation towards cells of the outer hair root sheath and usually presents as a small papule on the face in middle-aged or older people. We herein report a case of solitary tricholemmoma located in the lateral right thigh, which shows the appearance of infiltrated plaque. Histopathologic examination is confirmed the diagnosis of tricholemmoma.
Highlights
Open AccessTricholemmomas are benign follicular neoplasms that exhibit differentiation towards the outer root sheath of the pilosebaceous follicular epithelium
There are no specific clinical presentations of tricholemmoma which is misdiagnosed as verrucous pailloma and basal cell carcinoma, etc
Quite a number cases of tricholemmoma have been reported, to our knowledge, solitary plaque is a rare clinical presentation, so we report here a case of tricholemmoma with a single plaque which simulates basal-cell carcinoma in appearance
