ABSTRACT
Trichilemmal carcinoma, is also known as tricholemmal carcinoma
and tricholemocarcinoma. It is a neoplasm that develops
from the outer roots heath of the hair follicle, its histogenesis
remains unclear, and the main risk factor is sun exposure. It
develops most commonly on sun-exposed skin of the face in
elderly. The clinical features can be variable, papule, ulcer or
nodule as well as a tumoral aspect.
Clinical course is chronic and has a low index of metastases.
There are successful treatments with wide local excision and
Mohs micrographic surgery.
We report a case of a 73-year-old male with a four-month
evolution scalp ulcerative lesion, with histopathological diagnosis
of trichilemmal carcinoma.
