Meanwhile, when a solitary lesion was clinically similar to non-ulcerated basal cell carcinoma, or should be suspected as basal cell carcinoma when lesions ulcerated or grow steadily.

      Synonyms of Trichoepithelioma is epithelioma adenoids cysticum, trichoepithelioma papulatum multiplex, multiple begina sistikum epithelioma, sebaceous adenoma of Balzer.Tumor is thought to originate from basal cells differentiated towards pluripotential hair structure so named Trichoepithelioma.
