Recurrent Proliferating Trichilemmal Tumor with Malignant Change on the F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan has been used for the diagnosis, assessment of treatment response, and follow-up of various neoplasms. Proliferating trichilemmal cyst or tumor (PTT) is a rare neoplasm, originated from the outer root sheath of a hai...
