Abstract
We report two patients initially diagnosed as having steatocystoma mul tiplex (SM). Other cysts showed characteristics of eruptive vellus hai r cyst (EVHC). More than 30 and 14 cysts, respectively, were removed w ith histological hybrid characteristics of SM and EVHC. This suggests that SM and EVCH are two closely related entities, which represent a n aevoid malformation in the area where the sebaceous duct and hair foll icle meet.
