Some lesions defy classification and may be regarded as cystic follicular hamartomas. The presence of follicular papillae and bulb\u2010like structures, advanced follicular differentiation like that of inner and outer root sheath exclude the differential diagnosis of BCC arising in a cyst.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/cup.12619","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,8]],"date-time":"2015-09-08T08:42:18Z","timestamp":1441701738000},"page":"191-199","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Classification of cysts with follicular germinative differentiation"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Juan C.
