Pilomatrixoma is an uncommon benign tumor arising from hair follicles. They occur most commonly in the head and neck region, and are usually found in girls during the first two decades of life. These tumors may contain calcification, which, when present, is helpful in suggesting the diagnosis. We present a classic case of pilomatrixoma in the cheek of a young woman. The tumor was documented on CT studies, which showed a subcutaneous, noninvasive mass with calcifications.
毛母质瘤是一种起源于毛囊的罕见良性肿瘤。它们最常发生在头颈部区域,通常在女孩生命的前二十年被发现。这些肿瘤可能含有钙化,钙化出现时有助于提示诊断。我们报告一例年轻女性脸颊部毛母质瘤的典型病例。该肿瘤经CT检查证实,显示为皮下非侵袭性肿块伴钙化。
