Pigmented neuroectodermal tumor of infancy. A light microscopic and immunohistochemical study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Trichilemmal (pilar) cysts are common skin lesions that usually occur on the scalp of elderly women. They differentiate towards the follicular outer root sheath epithelium and show trichilemmal keratinization. Proliferating trichilemmal tumor (PTT) shows features of typical pilar cyst, but additionally shows...
