Sebaceoma. A distinctive benign neoplasm of adnexal epithelium differentiating toward sebaceous cells.

Sebaceoma is a new term proposed to designate a distinctive benign neoplasm of adnexal epithelium with differentiation toward sebaceous cells. Clinicopathologic correlation of the condition is presented in a study of 14 cases. This neoplasm has many histologic features in common with trichoepithelioma and cylindroma, both of which are benign neoplasms of adnexal epithelium, one with follicle-like and the other with eccrine-like differentiation. Sebaceoma is a recently recognized entity, and the term is recommended to supersede, not merely to redefine, what has been previously called sebaceous epithelioma.

Limitations in the diagnosis of vesiculobullous diseases.

Study of vesiculobullous skin diseases by either clinical, histologic, or immunologic methods alone in an effort to make a specific diagnosis is fraught with limitations. Not only is it essential that all three methods be employed together in the endeavor to come to a specific diagnosis, but it is equally important that clinical history, including response to therapy and biologic course, be considered carefully.
