title: An atypical case of lupus miliaris faciei simulating dermoid cyst: diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. Case report.
abstract: A case of solitary lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei simulating a dermoid cyst is reported in a 13-year-old boy. There were no abnormal biochemical parameters. The diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties involved are discussed. This type of tumour is rare in Scandinavia, and presumably carries a good prognosis.
