Abstract
A solitary trichoepithelioma occurred on the face of a 66-year-old Japanese woman. The so-called mixed tumor of the skin was discussed from the aspects of clinical findings and histological features. The tumor formed a relatively large node measured 10×12mm and the surface was shiny and light-reddish, in association with teleangiectasia. These findings suggested the so-called mixed tumor. As the histopathology revealed numerous horn cysts of various sizes as well as the tumor cell nests with narrow epithelial strands, a typical solitary trichoepithelioma was diagnosed.
