HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR TRICHO EPITHELIOMA
Trichoepithelioma is the name given to an uncommon condition in
which a single lesion or multiple benignhair follicle tumors (harmless
skin growths) arise on the face after puberty. The tumour cells form
rudimentary hair follicles but do not form actual hair shafts.
The tendency to multiple trichoepitheliomas is inherited but the condition is more common in females.
The tumours are small (usually less than one centimetre), firm,
rounded and shiny. They may be yellow, pink, brown or bluish. They usually
gradually increase in number with age, occurring on both cheeks,eyelids and
around the nose. A variant is the desmoplastic
trichoepithelioma which is a solitary ring-shaped shiny lesion and is usually
excised because it can look like a basal cell
carcinoma
Individual lesions may be confused clinically and pathologically
with basal cell
carcinoma, which is more common but usually arises as
a solitary tumour. Other conditions which can be confused with
trichoepithelioma include trichofolliculoma (a solitary tumour arising on the
face of the elderly), milia (small epidermalcysts), syringomata (sweat gland tumours most often seen on the eyelids).
