Abstract:
A review of the literature indicates that the simultaneous occurrence of two or more neoplasms in one specimen is a relatively infrequent finding. The finding of nevocellular nevi in close association with seborrheic keratosis, desmoplastic trichoepithelioma, syringoma, basal cell carcinoma, trichilemmal cyst, and epidermoid cyst raises interesting points about the histogenesis of these lesions. The combined occurrence of nevus with other epithelial neoplasms may indicate that changes in the microenvironment produced by nevus result in the induction of growth of the ectodermal origin neoplasms. We report a case of simultaneous occurrence of intradermal nevus and seborrheic keratosis.
