title: Successful treatment of steatocystoma multiplex by simple surgery.
abstract: Steatocystoma multiplex is usually a minor cosmetic problem but rarely can be extremely disfiguring. Unfortunately, the very patients who would benefit most from treatment are usually regarded as having too may cysts for surgery. We report a case of extensive steatocystoma multiplex which was treated by a simple surgical technique under general anaesthetic.
