Objective: The study aims to provide more information about the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of pilomatrixoma, of which little is known. Materials and Method: The research retrospectively studies pilomatrixoma cases that were operated by a department of otorhinolaryngology between January 2018-October 2021. Results: Pilomatrixoma is a benign tumor originating from the hair follicle matrix and is observed more frequently in women than in men. It is most commonly seen as a nodule in the head and neck region under the skin. This study examines 7 cases diagnosed as pilomatrixoma. Discussion: Pilomatrixoma should also be especially considered in palpable superficial or ulcerated lesions in the preauricular region, and differential diagnosis of pilomatrixoma should be made with parotid tumors.
