Composite trichoblastoma and inverted follicular keratosis: a case report

Abstract

Composite trichoblastoma and inverted follicular keratosis is extremely rare and the histogenesis is unclear. To date, only four cases have been described in a report. We report a case of 62-year-old woman patient with a palpable cutaneous nodule on the buttock. The patient had a history of squamous cell carcinoma on the lower lip 13 months ago. Excisional biopsy was done, and the microscopic examination revealed composite tumor of trichoblastoma and inverted follicular keratosis. The patient has not been experienced recurrence after surgery.
