Sebaceoma overlying a nevus sebaceous: A case report

Abstract

Sebaceoma is a benign tumour with sebaceous differentiation typically presenting as a yellow papule or nodule over the face and scalp. It is not uncommon for secondary growths like sebaceoma to be found over a nevus sebaceous. Here, we present a histologically proven case of sebaceoma arising from Nevus Sebaceous of Jadassohn, to highlight the significance of histopathological examination in a case of overgrowth over nevus sebaceous to rule out neoplastic transformation.
