To date, ~200 cases of pilomatrix carcinoma have been reported in the literature. These tumors usually present as atypical, solitary, firm nodules, most commonly in the head and neck region. Published data indicate that these tumors exhibit aggressive behavior and have a high potential for recurrence. Therefore, surgical excision with wide margins is recommended. We report a case of pilomatrix carcinoma located on the shoulder, initially presenting as a small pimple with purulent discharge in a 64-year-old man. We also review the relevant literature, with particular focus on the clinical characteristics, early identification, and treatment modalities associated with this disease.
迄今为止，文献中已报道了约200例毛母质癌病例。这些肿瘤通常表现为非典型的、孤立的、质地坚硬的结节，最常见于头颈部区域。已发表的数据表明，这些肿瘤具有侵袭性，复发潜力高。因此，建议进行广泛切缘的手术切除。我们报告了一例位于肩部的毛母质癌病例，最初表现为一名64岁男性肩部出现一个伴有脓性分泌物的小丘疹。我们还回顾了相关文献，特别关注与该疾病相关的临床特征、早期识别和治疗方式。
