ABSTRACT

La mucinosis folicular se caracteriza por depósito anómalo de mucina, en los folículos pilosos y glándulas sebáceas. Puede corresponder a un trastorno idiopático benigno y auto-limitado, especialmente en niños o representar un cuadro secundario a un trastorno mielo-proliferativo, generalmente un linfoma cutáneo-T. Presentamos el caso de una niña de diez años de edad, con varias placas eritemato-blanquecinas circulares, ocasionalmente pruriginosas, en cara, cuello y tronco, además de alopecia difusa de cinco meses de evolución. No hay ataque al estado general. El estudio histopatológico reportó un cuadro compatible con mucinosis folicular.


Follicular mucinosis is characterized by mucin deposits within the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. It can occur as a primary idiopathic benign disorder; it can; or it can arise as a secondary symptom of a malignant disorder, most commonly mycosis fungoide. Youth and localization in a single area used to be regarded as indicative of the benign nature of follicular mucinosis. We report the case of a ten years old girl who presented with a five months history of a multiple, slightly pruritic, erythematous patches on her face, neck and chest. Different local treatments were ineffective. Overall, she was healthy. Histopathological examination of the lesion showed the typical histological picture of follicular mucinosis.

Puede corresponder a un trastorno idiopático benigno y autolimitado especialmente en niños, o representar un cuadro secundario a un trastorno mieloproliferativo, generalmente un linfoma cutáneo T. Presentamos el caso de una niña de 10 años de edad con varias placas eritematoblanquecinas circulares ocasionalmente pruriginosas en cara, cuello y tronco, además de alopecia difusa de 5 meses de evolución. No hay ataque al estado general. El estudio histopatológico reportó un cuadro compatible con mucinosis folicular.

Youth and localization in a single area used to be regarded as indicative of the benign nature of follicular mucinosis. We report the case of a 10 -year old girl who presented with a 5- months history of a multiple, slightly pruritic, erythematous patches on her face, neck and chest. Different local treatments were ineffective. Overall, she was healthy. Histopathological examination of the lesion showed the typical histological picture of follicular mucinosis.

ABSTRACT

Los quistes vellosos eruptivos se presentan como lesiones de 1 a 4 mm, aspecto papular, color piel, rojizo a amarillento de etiología desconocida, localizados en tórax anterior o extremidades, con menor frecuencia pueden observarse en cara, cuello, abdomen y glúteos. Representan una patología poco frecuente derivada del infundíbulo piloso que puede ocurrir esporádicamente o ser heredada de forma autosómica dominante. Aunque su principal importancia radica en el diagnóstico diferencial, la dificultad en el manejo terapéutico es otro reto en esta entidad. Se presenta un caso de quistes vellosos eruptivos con compromiso extenso en el cual consideramos de interés peculiar, la localización facial.


Eruptive vellus hair cysts are papular lesions of 1-4 mm, skin color, reddish to yellowish, of unknown etiology, located on anterior chest or extremities. Less frequent locations may be seen on face, neck, abdomen and buttocks. It is an unusual condition resulting from hair infundibulum that may occur sporadically or being inherited in autosomal dominant manner. Although its main importance lies in the differential diagnosis, therapeutic approach is another challenge in this entity. A case of eruptive vellus cyst with extensive involvement is presented, emphasizing facial location of the lesions.
