Pilomatrixomas: Syndromic associations and a guide to germline genetic testing

2026-08-04

Abstract excerpt

Pilomatrixomas are benign tumours derived from hair matrix cells of the skin. These neoplasms are typically isolated and sporadic in nature but can also occur in association with several genetic syndromes when they often present as multiple lesions. The presentation of multiple pilomatrixomas in childhood or adulthood can therefore be the first manifestation of an underlying multisystem disorder. The syndromic ass...
