Pilomatrixoma (Benign Calcifying Epithelioma) of the Eyelids and Eyebrow

Pilomatrixoma in Periocular Tissues: A Case Report from Bangladesh

“…They most commonly involve the head and neck region followed by upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities. Periocular tissues are involved in 10-17% of cases and 5% of cases are multifocal ( Boniuk and Zimmerman 1963;Orlando et al, 1983) .…”

A Rare Case of Pilomatrixoma

“…Sheets of intensely eosinophilic keratinous material is seen within necrotic areas, and this may induce a foreign body giant cell reaction. 15,10,16 Histopathologic differential diagnosis include basal or squamous cell epitheliomas as well as a variety of skin and subcutaneous cysts 17 . As performed in this case, management of pilomatrixomas typically involves complete surgical excision. Lesions on the extremities may be left untreated unless they become large or symptomatic, however in many cases these are excised for definitive diagnosis.…”
