Trichoadenoma of Nikolowski

Trichoadenoma of Nikolowski is a rare benign tumor of the skin with hair follicle-like direction of differentiation. This tumor is less mature than trichofolliculoma and more differentiated than trichoepithelioma. Probably because of its rarity it has not been a well recognized tumor. We are reporting on eight cases of trichoadenoma to further define this benign growth.
