Multiple tumors arising in nevus sebaceus.
A forty-three year old woman with nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn involving the scalp is described. The unusual features of this case include the presence of adenoidal basal cell epithelioma, pigmented basal cell epithelioma, syringocystadenoma papilliferum, and nevocytic nevus. This case suggests the importance of prophylactic removal and close follow-up of nevus sebaceus.
