Familial multiple trichodiscomas.
A familial multiple trichodiscoma involving two sisters is reported. Trichodiscoma is a benign neoplasm of the mesenchymal component of the hair disk characterized clinically by asymptomatic papules and histologically by a dermal fibrovascular proliferation. Familial involvement and associations with other follicular neoplasia should be investigated in all cases.
