Abstract
Pilomatricoma is a benign tumor that arises from hair follicle matrical cells. Involvement of the upper limb is relatively uncommon and can be mistaken for other soft tissue tumors. We report the case of a 12 year old boy, who presented with an asymptomatic firm nodule over the left arm whose histology was suggestive of Pilomatricoma.
