Elementary, Sebaceous, Solo- Steatocystoma Simplex

Abstract

Steatocystoma simplex was initially scripted as a definitive entity and an extremely exceptional, benign adnexal tumour by Brownstein in 1982. Steatocystoma simplex is a solitary analogue of steatocystoma multiplex. The disorder is devoid of genetic transmission. Steatocystoma simplex as a clinical condition is distinct from steatocystoma multiplex. Solitary lesions delineated in steatocystoma simplex generally simulate clinical and histological aspects of multiple lesions of steatocystoma multiplex. Cutaneous tumour of steatocystoma simplex appears as a circumscribed, nevoid malformation of the pilosebaceous duct junction [1,2]. Steatocystoma simplex also carries the nomenclature of sebaceous duct cyst. Steatocystoma multiplex with representative multitudinous cysts are a frequently elucidated disorder, in contrast to the solitary cysts enunciated in steatocystoma simplex, which arise in adulthood.
