Familial multiple basaloid follicular hamartomas: A report of two affected sisters

M Girardi et al. Pediatr Dermatol. 1999 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

Basaloid follicular hamartoma (BFH) is one of several benign skin tumors that may occur in multiple and solitary forms. While the histologic findings of BFH may be observed in a variety of clinical settings, familial multiple BFH represents a distinct clinical entity characterized by tiny flesh-colored papules scattered predominantly over the face. We present two sisters with this rare condition and review the clinical and histologic differential diagnosis of familial multiple BFH.
