| Summary: |
Pilomatricoma (calcyfing
epithelioma Malherbe) is a slowly growing benign
cutaneous tumor of the hair matrix cells, which often
occurs in children. The clinical diagnosis is rarely
made. Pilomatricoma should be included in the clinical
differential diagnosis of subepidermal solid or cystic
tumors. Complete surgical excision is the best
management. Histopathological examination is necessary
for that tumor diagnosis. The recurrence as well as
cases of malignant evolution is rare.
Authors present 12 children (age 12 months to 14 years)
with pilomatricoma of the eyelids and orbital region. We
reviewed age, sex, picture, symptoms, tumor sites and
duration. All patients were treated surgically.
Histopathologic diagnosis was pilomatricoma. There was
no early or late complication. |
