A trichoblastic fibroma in the oval fossa of the left thigh of a 70 year old female is described. Basaloid cell complexes were surrounded by a moderately cellular, partly fibromyxoid stroma. Epithelial buds resembled the primitive hair germ which derives from the embryonal periderm. Epithelial layers, 1-2 cells thick, were enclosed in a hyalinized and condensed stroma. The development of a real hair bulb or a real hair matrix was not found.
