The malignant proliferating pilar tumor is a rare neoplasm that may be confused with squamous cell carcinoma, and is characterized by the clinical location in areas other than the scalp, rapid and infiltrative growth, a diameter greater than 5 centimeters, and in some instances, reports of metastasis. We report the case of a female patient, diagnosed with malignant proliferating pilar tumor, located in the scalp.
