The objective of this article is to describe our experiences in treating patients for head and neck pilomatrixoma at our institution during a 5-year period and to compare our findings with previously published results. To that end, we conducted a 5-year retrospective chart review to identify those patients who had a confirmed histopathologic diagnosis of pilomatrixoma involving the head and neck area. We reviewed medical records for presenting signs and symptoms, lesion characteristics, treatment rendered, and outcomes. We identified 26 patients, aged 6 to 77 (mean: 33), who met the criteria for inclusion in our study. All had been treated for solitary tumors with simple surgical excision and closure. We found no reported adverse outcomes and no tumor recurrences at the surgical sites. These findings support the use of simple surgical excision as the treatment of choice for these tumors.
本文的目的是描述我们医疗机构在5年期间治疗头颈部毛母质瘤患者的经验,并将我们的研究结果与先前发表的结果进行比较。为此,我们进行了一项为期5年的回顾性病历审查,以确定那些经组织病理学确诊为头颈部毛母质瘤的患者。我们查阅了病历,以了解患者的症状体征、病变特征、治疗方法及治疗结果。我们确定了26例符合纳入研究标准的患者,年龄在6至77岁之间(平均33岁)。所有患者均接受了单纯手术切除并缝合的孤立性肿瘤治疗。我们未发现有不良治疗结果的报告,手术部位也未出现肿瘤复发。这些研究结果支持将单纯手术切除作为这些肿瘤的首选治疗方法。
