A Case of Steatocystoma Simplex and Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia of the Bilateral Lacrimal Caruncle

PURPOSE: A case of bilateral lacrimal caruncle steatocystoma simplex and sebaceous gland hyperplasia, which rarely occurs in the periocular area, is reported. CASE SUMMARY: A 42-year-old female presented with a bilateral caruncular mass, which had been growing for a few months. A physical examination revealed soft, non-tender, rounded masses and no other ophthalmic findings. Under local anesthesia, the masses were completely excised. In the histopathological examination, a cystic mass containing a sebaceous gland in the stratified squamous epithelium cyst wall was found. A hyperplastic sebaceous gland and a dilated sebaceous gland duct were also found. Steatocystoma simplex and sebaceous gland hyperplasia, respectively, were diagnosed. There was no recurrence or complication after excision. CONCLUSIONS: Steatocystoma simplex and sebaceous gland hyperplasia are benign tumors that rarely occur in the lacrimal caruncle. They can be diagnosed and treated by complete excision. Steatocystoma simplex and sebaceous gland hyperplasia should therefore be considered as differential diagnoses of a lacrimal caruncle mass.

Treatment of sebaceous gland hyperplasia with fractional Q-switched 1064 nm laser / 中华整形外科杂志

Objective@#To investigate the therapeutic effect of fractional Q-switched 1 064 nm laser in treatment of sebaceous gland hyperplasia.@*Methods@#36 patients with sebaceous gland hyperplasia were recruited and treated with fractional Q-switched 1 064 nm laser, once per 1-2 weeks, 6-8 times for a course, lesion clearance, post-treatment scaring and pigmentation were observed.@*Results@#Skin lesions gradually shrank or came off after one course of treatment with fractional Q-switched 1 064 nm laser, leaving mild difference of texture compared with the surrounding skin, no obvious scaring or pigment anomaly occurred, no recurrence was found during 6-month follow-up.@*Conclusions@#Fractional Q-switched 1 064 nm laser is effective for clearance of sebaceous gland hyperplasia, furthermore, it presents more pleasant cosmetic outcome could be obtained by a single technique.

A Case of Giant Sebaceous Hyperplasia on the Scalp of a Young Adult / 대한피부과학회지

Giant sebaceous gland hyperplasia is a relatively rare condition revealing the same histological findings to sebaceous gland hyperplasia, but on a larger scale. A 34 year-old male patient presented with an asymptomatic, solitary, 1x0.4cm sized, erythematous nodule on the occipital area, which had developed 5 years ago. The initial impression was a trichilemmal cyst, epidermal cyst or folliculitis. Histopathologically, grouped hyperplastic sebaceous glands and a central dilated duct was observed, with Demodex brevis in one of the smaller glandular ducts. The lesion was completely removed by excisional biopsy and no sign of recurrence has been noticed to date. We report a case of giant sebaceous gland hyperplasia with Demodex brevis of the sebaceous duct on the scalp of young adult.

A Case of Giant Premature Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia Clinically Simulating Nevus Sebaceus / 대한피부과학회지

The occurrence of sebaceous gland hyperplasia commonly develops in elderly individuals. Clinical appearance is a papule with a central umbilication corresponding to the histological opening of sebaceous duct in the center. The usual size is 2 to 3mm in diameter. The histological features include hyperplastic mature sebaceous lobules grouped around a widely dilated sebaceous duct. We report a case of a 7-year old child with mental retardation and giant size of sebaceous gland hyperplasia which lead us to such clinical impressions as a nevus sebaceus

A Case of Premature Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia with Zosteriform Distribution / 대한피부과학회지

We experienced an atypical case of sebaceous gland hyperplssis in a 28-year old male. He had asymptomatic, multiple, globoid, yellowish papules in a zosteriform distribution on the right lower abdomen (T8 dermatome) that were of 5 years duration. Histologically, there are many hyperplastic lobules of sebaceous glands, some of which are connected with a central dilated duct.
