  • Title: Skin-type adnexal tumor with trichoblastic germinative differentiation in the breast: a case report.
    Author: Gököz O, Presenti L, Gambacorta G, Zolfanelli F, Tricarico R, Nistri R, Baroni G, Bianchi S, Massi D.
    Journal: Int J Surg Pathol; 2011 Aug; 19(4):527-33. PubMed ID: 19468034.
    Abstract:
    Adnexal tumors with follicular differentiation in the breast parenchyma are rarely encountered. The authors present a unique case arising in a 64-year-old woman, in whom they observed composite differentiation toward follicular germinative cells of the hair follicle with focal areas of outer root sheath differentiation and pilar-type keratinization. The histogenesis of this tumor is analyzed in light of the peculiar pathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetic findings.
