Abstract
This study shows that despite their frequency, these lesions often go unrecognized, since the hypothesis of a fibrous papule of the face was mentioned in fewer than 50% of cases at the time of biopsy. Diagnosis is often made by the histopathologist, who may be misled by some rare types. The principal differential diagnoses are nevus and basal cell carcinoma, thus warranting methodical histological analysis of all pieces.
