[Insulated leg pilomatrixoma: a rare localization].
Pilomatrixoma is a benign skin neoplasm of the hair follicle. It's common in the pediatric population. It's usually misdiagnosed and confused with other skin lesions. Head and neck represent the usual locations. The extremity remains an exceptional location. Through an observation of a pilomatrixoma of the leg in an adult patient treated surgically without recurrence, different diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this pathology will be recalled.
