title: Folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma. A distinctive malformation of the skin.
abstract: Five examples of a distinctive sebaceous malformation, designated "folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma," form the basis of this study. Criteria are proposed for specific diagnosis of this hamartoma and for differentiation of it from sebaceous gland hyperplasia, steatocystoma, dermoid cyst of skin, and sebaceous trichofolliculoma.
