Abstract

A case of calcifying epithelioma (of Malherbe) is reported, which seems to be developing on an epidermal cyst: microscopic examination shows a sudden transformation of the wall of the epidermal cyst into a calcifying epithelioma. This histological feature is very rare: only 2 similar cases have been reported in the literature until now.
