Autosomal dominant multiple cylindromas associated with solitary lung cylindroma.
The occurrence of multiple cutaneous cylindromas constitutes an uncommon autosomal dominant cutaneous disorder whose associations usually are limited to other cutaneous tumors. We report here the first case of a patient with multiple cutaneous cylindromas, who concurrently had a benign lung cylindroma with histologic features identical to her skin lesions. She also had a family history of early death from cardiac disease.
