Cerebellar liponeurocytomas were recognized in the 2000 WHO 3rd edition of CNS tumors as a distinct grade I pathological entity, a tumor with a more favorable prognosis than medulloblastoma. But reports of long-term recurrences and some possible aggressive behavior led to an upgrade on the latest WHO 4th edition of CNS tumors. The case of a 64-year-old female patient is reported in this paper. More than 30 cases of this lately recognized pathological entity have been reported to date. The diagnostic, radiological, and pathological features associated with this tumor are discussed through a literature review.

Background: Pilomatricoma is a common benign adnexal tumor differentiating toward elements of the hair matrix and shaft. It typically presents as a solitary, deep, dermal nodule. We describe a case of a pilomatricoma with the unusual feature of a thick-walled dermal bulla overlying the tumor. Objective: We describe a case of bullous pilomatricoma and discuss the potential etiology of the bullous feature of the lesion. Methods: This article includes a case report and a literature review. Conclusions: Bullous pilomatricoma has rarely been described. A common pathological feature in this type of pilomatricoma is the presence of dilated lymphatics. Bullous morphea associated with dermal lymphatic dilation has also been described. In both bullous pilomatricoma and morphea, it is possible that individual pathological features of the lesion lead to obstruction and congestion of the dermal lymphatics thereby inducing enough dilation and edema to form a dermal bulla. Antécédents: Le pilomatrixome (épithéliome calcifiant de Malherbe) est une tumeur annexielle bénigne qui ressemble aux éléments de la matrice et de la tige pilaires. Il se manifeste typiquement par un nodule sous-cutané solitaire. Nous rapportons un cas de pilomatrixome présentant la caractéristique inhabituelle d'une bulle dermique à paroi épaisse située au-dessus de la tumeur. Objectifs: Décrire un cas de pilomatrixome bulleux et présenter l'étiologie potentielle d'une telle manifestation. Méthodes: Cet article comporte une étude de cas ainsi qu'une revue de la littérature. Conclusion: Le pilomatrixome bulleux a rarement été décrit. La dilatation des vaisseaux lymphatiques constitue une manifestation pathologique fréquente de cette forme de pilomatrixome. La morphée bulleuse a également été associée à une dilatation de vaisseaux lymphatiques. Il est possible que les caractéristiques pathologiques individuelles des lésions du pilomatrixome bulleux et de la morphée entraînent une obstruction et une congestion des vaisseaux lymphatiques, provoquant ainsi une dilatation et un œdème suffisamment importants pour former une bulle.

We report a long-term follow-up of a female patient with a multifocal extremity desmoid tumour. She had 3 local recurrences after excision and developed a second unresectable pelvic tumour that has remained unchanged in size for 14 years since starting tamoxifen treatment.
