Abstract:
A 33-year-old man had multiple, dome shaped, pin-head sized, hard papules on the center of face and pigeon's egg sized hard tumors on the left upper arm and the trunk. The histopathological findings of the skin biopsy specimens from face and left upper arm showed tumor islands composed of basophilic cells of the same sppearance as basalioma cells, arranged in a lacelike and solid aggregates, without horn cysts.
