RESUMEN
Tumor of follicular infundibulum (TFI) is currently believed to be a benign epithelial neoplasm with follicular differentiation. It has been suggested that TFI is associated with dermal scarring, but further investigation is needed to confirm this correlation. To approach this question, a retrospective study was presented, a total of 67 cases (64 lesions) were found in a search covering cases over a 10-year period. Overall, the presence of histological dermal scarring was noted in 34 of 64 (53.13%) cases. Of the cases where TFI was an incidental finding, the presence of dermal scarring was noted in 13 of 18 (72.22%) cases. Meanwhile, of the cases where TFI was the main diagnosis, the presence of dermal scarring was noted in 12 of 34 (35.29%) cases. This suggests that TFI may, in some cases, represent an epidermal reaction pattern to dermal scarring.
