“…It is not surprising, therefore, that sebaceous and apocrine differentiation should appear within a trichilemmal cyst. It should be remembered that as early as 1968, Holmes in describing such a cyst, which she called a trichochlamydocyst, had noted follicular differentiation in connection with the cyst wall, an observation later confirmed by Mehregan & Hardin (1973).…”

The trichilemmal cyst has been the subject of numerous light and ultrastructural studies. To our knowledge, no glandular differentiation has so far been described within the wall of such a cyst. We report a case in which there was evidence of sebaceous and apocrine differentiation within the cyst wall. It is postulated that these features suggest that it should be classified amongst the pilar adenomas.

We are reporting three patients with recent history of rapid enlargement of long standing nodular scalp lesions. Histologic sections revealed areas of relatively benign proliferation of pilar sheath epithelium and foci of trichilemmal keratinization characteristic of a proliferating trichilemmal cyst. There were also extensive areas of severe cellular dysplasia and surrounding dermal invasion indicating malignant transformation.
