title: Dermal cylindroma (turban tumor). Case report.
abstract: We present an unusual case of massive dermal cylindroma (turban tumor), occupying the entire scalpand forehead. It was treated by a total scalping procedure and skin grafting in two stages. Additional tumors of the face, neck, chest, shoulders, and back were excised and closed. The nose was treated by shoving and dermabrasion, similar to a rhinophyma. The lip was treated by dermabrasion. There has been no evidence of recurrence in the scalp which was treated by excision and grafting. There is now a papular quality of the skin over the nose and on the uppler lip, indicating that regrowth may occur. The etiology, pathology, and a review of the literature are presented.
