Abstract :

 Steatocystoma multiplex (SM) is a rare disorder of the pilosebaceous unit characterized by the eruption of numerous sebum–containing dermal cysts. These are usually confined to presternal area, trunk, neck and proximal upper extremities. Localised and segmental variants have been occasionally described. However, pigmentation or itching has not been commonly described. We present a case with regular distribution but associated with itching and pigmentation.
