Abstract:
Transfollicular extrusion of sebaceous gland lobules was observed in a case of actinic keratosis and 2 cases of sebaceous hyperplasia. The patient of act.inic keratosis was a 44-year-old white man and the patients of sebaceous hvperplasia were a i3-year-old Korean girl and a 28-year-old Korean man. The sebaceous gland lobules located within the dilated infundibular area and partly between separated granular layers were intact and partly surrounded by keratin materjal. No histopathologic overlapping of sebaceous gland lobules was observed. We suppose that transfollicular ext,rusion of sebaceous gland lobules may not be artifact. but one of natural phenomena. But further study will be necessary to evaluate the significance of this peculiar histopathologic findings.
