Abstract
|
|
|
|
Pilomatrixoma is a benign skin appendage tumor with differentiation toward hair cells, particularly hair cortex cells. Histologically, two types of basophilic and shadow cells compose the islands. The basophilic cells are round or elongated with deeply basophilic nuclei and scanty cytoplasm. Cytologically, this case showed clusters of tightly arranged basaloid cells with a uniform appearance, scanty cytoplasm and round hyperchromatic nuclei. And it may cause when attempting to establish a differential diagnosis with other neoplasms. We report the aspiration cytology findings of a case of pilomatrixoma.
