Pilomatricomas are benign cutaneous neoplasms that occur frequently in children and usually present as slow-growing, firm, dermal nodules. They are the second most common skin lesion excised from children. A rare exophytic variety has been described, but to our knowledge this has not previously been reported in Asian children. We present this case to highlight the clinical features and to affirm that race may not play a role in the etiology of pilomatricomas. We also illustrate how these lesions can be effectively treated by shave excision.
