My differential is bcc vs desmoplastic trichilemomma. I favour the latter based on morphology

Why not a "Basaloid Follicular Hamartoma"?

Yes I was wrong...Desmoplasia and CD34 are more in keeping with DT.

yes agree. The desmoplastic areas are typical. Can see a hint of reverse polarisation in image 6.

Yes, desmoplastic tricholemmoma. The tumor peripheral layer rests on a thickened glassy basement membrane and is composed by columnar cells with nuclear palisading and reverse polarization, but towards the center, the tumor shows a pseudoinfiltrative growth pattern into the sclerotic stroma.

Yes well done. This is a small desmoplastic tricholemmoma for reasons elaborated above. Easily mistaken for BCC (infiltrative) or SCC.  Apologies for late response - I'm on the family hols in Sardinia, completely forgot about work for a few days!
