The proliferating trichilemmal tumor (PTT) is a rare, usually benign, tumor arising from the outer root sheath of the hair follicle. The usual clinical presentation is in a form of subcutaneous nodule in the scalp of elderly woman. Histopathologically, characteristic proliferation of the outer root sheath epithelium such as trichilemmal keratinization and nodular organization is observed as well as cellular atypia which may lead to impression of malignancy. The author report a case of proliferating trichilemmal tumor arisen in the thigh of a 24-year-old male within duration of 3 months which is quite an unusual clinical presentation.

We report a family suffering from Marie Unnas hypotrichosis (8 members affected in 4 generations). At birth they had normal hairs, subsequently loss of hair on the scalp, eyebrow and eyelash. At about 3rd years, coarse twisted scalp hair regrow until puberty when progressive loss from vertex and scalp margin was noticed. On physical examination and lsboratory studies, there was no associated abnormality in the patients. The scanning electron microscopic examination of the affected hair showed cuticular peeling and twisting or angulation of hair shaft.

Scrotal calcinosis, consisting of solitary or multiple circumscribed calcium deposits within the dermis of the scrotum, is generally assumed to be one the idiopathic type of calcinosis. We present herein a case of serotal calcinosis associated with scrotal epidermal cysts in a 29-year-old male patient who had multiple, 2 to 6mm sized, yellowish or flesh colored nodules in the dermis, Histopathologically multiple ncdules showed intact epidermal cyzts, an epidermal cyst with a partialIy degenerated wall and surrounding foreign body reaction, and calcium deposits with foreign body reaction in the dermis without an epithelial lining around calcium deposit. Therefore, idiopathic scrotal calcinosis may repreeent the end stage of dystrophic calcificati.on associated with inflammation of the scrotal epidermal cysts.
