Locally Aggressive Trichoblastoma or Basal Cell Carcinoma? What is the Benefit of Dermoscopy? A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Dermatology Research - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Trichoblastoma is a predominantly dermal benign hair follicle tumor, characterized by wellcircumscribed nests and cords of bland follicular basaloid cells in close association with stroma. The aggressive form is rare and its diagnosis remains difficult, because of its similarities with basal cell carcinoma. We report a case of an 80 years old male patient and discuss the morphological differences between the two tumors.
