Oral trichogranuloma in an Asian 12-years-old female with trichotillomania

We report an unusual case of acquired PS as a consequence of the unconscious habit of chewing on the hairs in a 12- year-old girl.Although most commonly located in the gluteal cleft, it has been reported in several areas of the body (including face) but, to the best of our knowledge, ours is the first report in the oral cavity.
