ABSTRACT

Background: The trichilemmal carcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm, whose origin lies in the annexes of the skin, because of its low prevalence often confused with other dermal tumors, the differential diagnosis is not easy and is usually made by exclusion; in theory, its behavior is slow with little tendency to send both regional lymph node metastasis and systemic. Due to the limited number of cases there is no consensus on the prognosis, although it is generally considered good.
The aim of this report is to show a case that, contrary to previous reports, the clinical presentation is aggressive with large soft tissue tumor infiltration around the site of origin in a patient without risk factors for skin cancer.
Clinical case: Male patient, 65 years old with cytologic diagnosis of carcinoma in a preprarotideal facial tumor, characteristics at diagnosis were infiltration of the facial skin, ear, and parotid gland. Complete block resection was performed, radical parotiroidectomy and radical neck dissection; the soft tissue defect was covered with a pediculated flap. The evolution was satisfactory it follow-up short though. We evaluated the experience in the literature regarding the prognosis and treatment of these patients.
Conclusion: Trichilemmal carcinoma can be fully invasive behavior prognosis is difficult to know and probably depends on the clinical stage at diagnosis.
