Trichoblastoma (TB) is a benign biphasic follicular neoplasm with differentiation toward the germinative cells and a specific follicular mesenchyme. We subtyped 349 sporadic TB according to a classification proposed by Ackerman.
Two hundred forty-six (246/349, 70.5%) neoplasms were comprised of mixed subtypes. TB composed exclusively of a single pattern was less common (103/349, 29.5%).
The most common pure subtype was cribriform TB followed by small nodular TB. Twelve cases (12/349, 3.4%) had unique features and are reported herein as novel histopathologic subtypes of the neoplasm.
