| Résumé : | Although pilomatrixomas are well known among dermatologists and dermatopathologists, head and neck surgeons confronted with these lesions in the infra-auricular region do not consider this benign neoplasm in the differential diagnosis. Aggressive pilomatrixoma is a benign tumor of the hair matrix cells affecting mainly children. Histologically, the border between aggressive pilomatrixoma and pilomatrix carcinoma is still not clear. We report the case of a 15-year-old Turkish boy suffering from an aggressive pilomatrixoma of the infra-auricular region and review the literature about this unclear entity. © 2005 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
