Abstract

Epithelial changes overlying dermatofibromas are well recognized. The presence of sebaceous differentiation overlying a dermatofibroma is unusual. We report two patients with sebaceous hyperplasia overlying a dermatofibroma and discuss possible mechanisms for induction of the epithelium and adnexa by the mesenchyme in a dermatofibroma.
