Pilomatricoma is a benign skin tumor of hair matrix cells. The head and neckis the most commonly affected site of the body. This article describes 41year-old man who referred to our clinic with an asymptomatic, slow-growingmass on the right retroauricular, suboccipital region. The tumor was excisedand histopathologically diagnosed as pilomatricoma. Because of itsfrequency and predilection of head and neck region, otolaryngologists shouldbe familiar of this tumor.

Özet

Pilomatrikoma, kıl folliküllerinin matriks hücrelerinden köken alan benign deri tümörleridir. Bu tümörün en sık görüldüğü yerleşim yeri baş ve boyun bölgesidir. Bu yazıda, 41 yaşında sağ retroauriküler, suboccipital bölgede semptomsuz, yavaş büyüyen kitle ile başvuran bir hasta tarif edilmektedir. Bu tümör çıkarılarak histopatolojik incelemeye gönderilmiş ve pilomatrikoma tanısı almıştır. Baş ve boyun bölgesinde sık görülme eğilimi nedeniyle kulak burun boğaz hekimlerinin bu tümörün klinik sunumunun bilincinde olması ve baş boyun kitlelerinin ayırıcı tanısında bu tümörleri akla getirmesi önerilmektedir.
