Abstract
Trichilemmomas are benign and rare tumors of hair follicles that usually present as warty nodules and consist of clear and intermediate cells. A 34-year-old Indian man who initially presented with a complaint of a lesion over the left parietal region of the scalp and with a tendency to bleed on touch was clinically diagnosed with a pyogenic granuloma. It was managed by excising the lesion and the excised tissue was sent for histopathological examination, which was found to be a benign cutaneous adnexal neoplasm suggestive of a trichilemmoma. The patient is currently under follow-up and reports no recurrence at the end of six months.
