Abstract excerpt
Trichoblastoma (TB) and syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) are both rare adnexal skin lesions occurring either sporadically or as secondary neoplasms in sebaceous nevi. TB and SCAP associated with sebaceous nevi have been shown to carry the same HRAS mutation as the underlying nevus. However, the genetic background of sporadic TB and SCAP has remained unknown. Therefore, we screened 18 sporadic TBs and 23...
