چکیده
An association between steatocystoma multiplex (SCM) and eruptive vellus hair cysts (EVHCs) has been recognized. Steatocystoma multiplex and EVHC have similar clinical features but distinctive histologic features. Rare cases of co-occurrence of these conditions have been known to occur on the trunk and the forehead. We report a rare case of the simultaneous occurrence of SCM, EVHC, and trichofolliculomas localized to the forehead.
