Trichilemmal cyst (TC) is an adnexal skin tumor that usually occurs on the scalp. There is a female dominance in this tumor. Proliferating pilar tumors or cysts arise from this lesion, and the clinical differential diagnosis from TCs must be taken because of aggressive behavior of proliferating pilar tumor. Trichilemmal cyst usually occurs in hair-bearing areas such as the neck, trunk, groin, and others. In this article, we report a case with giant TC involving the neck region.
毛囊囊肿(TC)是一种通常发生于头皮的附属器皮肤肿瘤。该肿瘤女性多见。增殖性毛根鞘瘤或囊肿起源于此病变,由于增殖性毛根鞘瘤具有侵袭性,因此必须对其与毛囊囊肿进行临床鉴别诊断。毛囊囊肿通常发生于有毛发的部位,如颈部、躯干、腹股沟等。在本文中,我们报告了1例累及颈部的巨大毛囊囊肿病例。
