Abstract
Difficulty in differentiation between a solitary basal cell carcinoma, which is known as a malign skin lesion and a benign trichoepithelioma, is a frequent problem in all day dermatologic practice. Clinically as well as histopathologically there are a lot of resemblances between these skin tumors. By means of two real life cases, we give here an overview of the possible problems and appliances in distinguishing these two entities; at the end we do some recommendation about the policy.Entities:
