Pilomatrixoma, also known as calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe, is a histological type of benign subcutaneous tumor arising from the cutaneous adnexa. We present our experience and the characteristic findings of a pilomatrixoma of the right thigh in a young healthy man. The lesion had grown slowly in size over the past year and this was the reason for referral to the Department of Plastic Surgery. Ultrasound imaging was performed and, through the use of B-mode, color-Doppler, and elastosonography, the lesion was depicted. The patient was therefore scheduled for surgery. Pilomatrixomas at times can pose a diagnostic challenge, especially when the location is unusual. Ultrasound and its tools, that is, color-Doppler and elastography, can assist the clinician arising the suspicion of pilomatrixoma.
毛母质瘤，也称为马尔赫布钙化上皮瘤，是一种起源于皮肤附属器的组织学类型的良性皮下肿瘤。我们介绍了一名年轻健康男性右大腿毛母质瘤的诊疗经验和特征性表现。该病变在过去一年中大小缓慢增长，这是转诊至整形外科的原因。进行了超声检查，通过B超、彩色多普勒和弹性成像对病变进行了描绘。因此，该患者被安排进行手术。毛母质瘤有时会带来诊断挑战，尤其是当病变位置不寻常时。超声及其工具，即彩色多普勒和弹性成像，可帮助临床医生怀疑毛母质瘤。
