A Case Report onRecurrent Trichilemmal Carcinoma of Scalp-Role of Clinico-Radiological Correlation
Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2023, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Purpose:To evaluate diagnosis of Trichilemmal carcinoma scalp with clinico-radiological and pathological correlation.Introduction:Trichilemmal carcinoma is a rare slow growing malignant adnexal tumour that originates from the external hair sheath of hair follicle accounting for <0.005% of adnexal carcinoma1. It mimics squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, sebaceous carcinoma. Rarity, indolent clinical course inspite of local aggressiveness and a good survival rate post excision further undermine the importance of this unique entity.Herewith, we are reporting a case of recurrent trichilemmal carcinoma of scalp presented to the outpatient department of Radiation Oncology at our institute.
