title: Pilomatrix carcinoma or calcifying epitheliocarcinoma of Malherbe: a case report and review of literature.
abstract: We report a case of aggressive pilomatrixoma with two recurrences. This is the first reported case of such a tumor with a basal cell-like histology of recurrences. We propose that this type of tumor be designated "calcifying epitheliocarcinoma of Malherbe" or "pilomatrixoma carcinoma".
