Abstract

|
Miliary osteoma cutis of the face is a variant of osteoma cutis, and this malady occurs in middle-aged to older women with or without a previous history of acne vulgaris. Case 1 is a 54-year-old woman who presented with asymptomatic, multiple, 2∼3 mm-diameter, skin-colored, firm papules on both cheeks and she’d had these lesions for 10 years. Case 2 is a 61-year-old woman who showed the same type of skin lesions on both cheeks and temporal areas for 10 years. Histopathological examinations for the two cases revealed compact bone formation in the dermis. We report here on 2 rare cases of miliary osteoma cutis of the face.
