Cutaneous dermoid cyst: cytokeratin and filaggrin expression suggesting differentiation towards follicular infundibulum and mature sebaceous gland.
We experienced two cases of cutaneous dermoid cysts (DC). To elucidate the histogenesis of DC, we have studied cytokeratin (CK) expression in DC using ten different anti-keratin antibodies against CK1, 7, 8, 10, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19, and anti-filaggrin (filament aggregating protein) antibody. In the cyst wall of DC, CK1 and 10 were expressed in suprabasal layer, and CK14 was limited to the...
متن کاملCytokeratin expression in trichilemmal carcinoma suggests differentiation towards follicular infundibulum.
An immunohistochemical study of cytokeratins (CK) in a case of trichilemmal carcinoma (TLC). CK expression showed the presence of CK 1, 10, 14 and 17, suggesting that TLC differentiates toward follicular infundibulum. In a comparison of CK expression between TLC and trichilemmoma, the absence of CK 15 and 16 in TLC may be related to transformation from trichilemmoma to TLC. Trichilemmal carcino...
متن کاملA case of tumor of the follicular infundibulum with sebaceous differentiation.
Tumor of the follicular infundibulum (TFI) is an uncommon benign adnexal tumor that usually presents as a solitary keratotic papule on the face or scalp of elderly patients. Histopathologically, it typically manifests as a plate-like fenestrated proliferation of monomorphic pale-staining cells. A 76-year-old male presented with about a 2 cm, well-defined, yellowish to brownish, slightly elevate...

متن کاملMultiple tumors of the follicular infundibulum: a cutaneous reaction pattern?
The etiology of tumor of the follicular infundibulum (TFI) is unknown. Eruptive forms of TFI are rare. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman with multiple lesions on the arms, shoulders, trunk, buttocks, and legs of more than 3 years' duration. On clinical and histologic examination, a diagnosis of multiple TFI was made. Additionally, the patient presented with other rare remarkable featur...
