[Benign adnexal tumors of late occurrence in verrucoid-sebaceous nevus (Jadassohn). Apropos of 7 cases].

Occurrence of basal cell epithelioma and syringocystadenoma papilliferum on sebaceous nevi is well known. But many other adnexal tumors, such as pilar or sweat gland tumours may also be associated with this dysembryoplasia. Out of 99 cases of verruco-sebaceous nevi we find 12 associated basal cell epitheliomas, 7 syringocystadenomas papilliferum and 6 benign adnexal tumors. Our report is about these 7 cases. All of these tumors appeared in adult-hood and were clinically suggesting the diagnostic of basal cell epithelioma. But, after histopathological examination was performed, they revealed to be 2 nodular hidradenomas, 1 chondroid syringoma, 1 trichilemmoma, 1 apocrine cystadenoma, 1 follicular poroma. Similar data are given by Mehregan and Pinkus in 1965 and Wilson Jones and Heyl in 1970, respectively out of 150 and 140 cases of verruco-sebaceous nevi.

Nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn.

The nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn is a little known entity to most otolaryngologists. Most of the reported cases have occurred on the face or scalp. The lesion is usually congenital. It is a hairless, yellowish-red plaque until puberty when it becomes verrucous and unsightly. Benign or malignant tumors frequently develop. Associated ocular and central nervous system defects are occasionally present. The treatment is full-thickness excision as early as is feasible for cosmetic purposes and to avert the potential development of benign or malignant tumors.

Humans↗

Optic nerve hypoplasia and the syndrome of nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn. A new association.

The nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn (NSJ) syndrome is a not uncommon pediatric dermatosis, with malignant potential. It is the cutaneous manifestation of another phakomatosis, characterized by neurologic, ophthalmic, cardiovascular, skeletal, and urogenital involvement. The features of this syndrome overlap those of the oculo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia of Goldenhar and tuberous sclerosis. The extent of system involvement suggests a developmental insult during the first few weeks of gestation. A clearly genetic basis has not been established. An infant with NSJ syndrome is described who had associated optic nerve hypoplasia. His clinical, pathologic, and radiologic findings, including computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging, are presented.

[Jadassohn linear nevus sebaceous. Report of a case].

Report of a case of linear nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn with the classical syndrome: 1) the facial linear nevus; 2) focal convulsions and 3) mental retardation. Skin biopsy didn't show proliferation of the sebaceous glands showing to be an early case. Computerized tomography showed slight cortico-subcortical atrophies, in contrast with the intensity of the mental retardation and focal crisis. Convulsions were controlled by several drug associations.

Diagnosis, Differential↗

[Jadassohn's sebaceous nevus].

We report the case of a child's Jadassohn sebaceous noevus, localised on the vertex cranii, the trunk and the limb, associated with the presence of ophthalmological and neurological abnormalities. The diagnosis of this syndrome has been difficult because all the signs were not present at birth. The surgical treatment of the vertex cranii lesions will be realised after expansion with sub cutaneous prothesis, allowing a large exeresis and an adequate reconstruction. Only the anatomo-pathological examination allows any malignant degeneration of the lesion.

Central Nervous System Diseases↗

[Jadassohn's nevus sebaceous: E.E.G. data of four cases (author's transl)].

Electroencephalographic data of four cases of Jadassohn's nevus sebaceous found in children is reported. An attempt has been made to establish a correlation between the region of cutaneous lesion with that of the electroencephalographically affected area of the cerebral hemisphere. Cases published up until 1975 that have made reference to electroencephalographic findings are reviewed.

Linear sebaceous nevus syndrome (sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn) associated with abnormal neuronal migration and optic glioma: case report.

A case of linear sebaceous nevus syndrome (sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn) in an infant is reported. The clinical manifestation and the radiological features of the central nervous system abnormalities associated with this neurocutaneous syndrome are presented. We believe that this is the first reported case of this syndrome in combination with optic glioma.

Astrocytoma↗

Molluscum contagiosum mimicking sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn, ecthyma and giant condylomata acuminata in HIV-infected patients.

We report on three HIV-infected homosexual male patients with atypical manifestations of mollusca contagiosa (MC). Their clinical presentation mimicked sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn, ecthyma and giant condylomata acuminata. HIV-infected patients feature MC with atypical morphology in about two thirds of the cases. The atypical aspects of MC concern the localization, morphology, growth pattern and size of the lesions. MC is a late manifestation of HIV infection and mirrors marked cellular immune deficiency. We conclude that in HIV-infected patients all tumorous lesions should be biopsied because the clinical characteristics are often not specific enough for a definite diagnosis.

Development of multiple tumors in a sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn.

We report the case of a 56-year-old male with a sebaceous nevus of the scalp, complicated by multiple tumor development. Histologic examination revealed a basal cell carcinoma, a syringocystadenoma papilliferum and a proliferating trichilemmal cyst. Sebaceous nevus has a well-documented neoplastic potential. Multiple tumors may occasionally arise, but the coexistence of 3 or more tumors is extremely rare. Close monitoring and early complete surgical excision of sebaceous nevi are warranted, in order to ensure a favorable prognosis.
