This article reports a case of nevus trichilemmocysticus. The patient, a 48-year-old man, presented with multiple filiform keratoses and nodules. Physical examination identified multiple subcutaneous papules and nodules on the scalp, filiform keratoses on the face and bilateral ears, in addition to linear blackheads on trunk and limbs. The patient also exhibited hair loss and hypoplastic tooth. Histopathology revealed trichilemmal cyst. Nevus trichilemmocysticus is a rare organoid nevus. We reviewed literature in order to raise the awareness of the syndrome.
