A Case of Eruptive Vellus Hair Cysts Associated with Milia on the Face / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

We report a 48-year-old female who had eruptive vellus hair cysts associated with milia on the face. Histopathologic examination of lesions on the forehead and cheek showed typical findings of eruptive vellus hair cysts and milia. These findings suggested that two entities are in some way related. Eruptive vellus hair cysts and milia can be considered as subtypes of multiple pilosebaceous cysts that may all present overlapping histologic features.
