Abstract:
Pilomatrixoma, or calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe, is an uncommon, benign, epithelial tumor of the skin that often arises in head and neck regions, in the first 2 decades of life. The report of two cases of pilomatrixoma in the parotid area permits to clarify the clinical features and the problems in the differential diagnosis of these tumors.
