Abstract
|
|
|
Steatocystoma multiplex is a relatively rare condition characterized by multiple, small, yellowish, cystic nodules 2 to 4mm in diameter located principally on the upper arms and the thighs. This has a high familial tendency and probably has an autosomal dominant mode of transmission. These tumors of Steatocystoma multiplex characteristically contain hair follicles and sebaceous glands, and are to be the dermoid cyst. There was a familial and congenital inferiority in the ectoderm in both patient and family, ie, ichthyosis, hypohidrosis, koilonychia, milia and comedones.
A 26-year-old Korean soldier was seen in February of 1970. His condition started 10 years previously. The widespread cystic nodules were 0.2 to 1 cm in size and yellowish in color, and located on chest, back, scrotum and behind both ear lobes. There was thickening and daky brownish discolorations of all finger and toe nails. His father and two brothers had similar disorders.
Histologically clusters of hairs, mainly of lanugo size but some of intermediate character, were found in the lumen.
