A Case of Desmoplastic Trichoepithelioma
|
|

Abstract
|
|
|
Desmoplastic trichiepithelioma is a solitary tumor of the hair follicle with female preponderance, most commonly located on the face. Clinically the lesions appear annular and firm with a raised border and a depressed nonulcerated center, but the
appearance is not so distinctive to hair follicle tumors that definite dignosis is established by the histopathologic findings.
We report herein a case a case of desmoplastic trichoepithelioma in a 21-yeaar-old woman who had an asymptomatic hard, annular lesion, 0.4cm sized in diameter with a raised border and a depressed center on the right cheek.
Histopathologic findings showed narrow strands of basaloid cells, horny cysts and desmoplastic stnoma, the features corresponding to the desmoplastic trichoepithelioma. (Kor J Dermatol 1993;31(6) : 1014-1017).
