Popis: Nevus sebaceous is a hamartoma of the cutaneous structures that often presents at birth and typically involves the face and scalp. Nevus sebaceous is frequently complicated by the development of a variety of other benign or malignant neoplasms. The most frequently reported benign neoplasms are trichoblastoma and syringocystadenoma papilliferum. Malignant tumors are much less frequently observed in association with nevus sebaceous and include basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, sebaceous carcinoma, and others [1]. However, no previous reports have described trichoblastic carcinoma occurring secondarily to nevus sebaceous. We report a case of malignant trichoblastoma that arose from nevus sebaceous of the scalp in a 38-year-old woman.
