Abstract
|
|
|
Eruptive vellus hair cysts are yellowish or reddish-brown and are grouped or scattered papules with a smooth or crusted surface. The cysts occur predominantly over the anterior part of the chest, extremities and axillae, although they can also be seen on the neck and groin and may range from a single lesion to hundreds. Lesions have rarely been reported to regress spontaneously, so patients request treatment for cosmetic reasons. Few case reports exist on therapy for eruptive vellus hair cysts. It is known that therapies can lead to unsatisfying results or recurrences. We report a case of an eruptive vellus hair cyst successfully treated by mini-incision.
