• 

  Fig. 1 A well-defined yellow plaque (arrow) was evident on the right side of the anterior hairline.

• 

  Fig. 2 (A) Histological examination revealed superficial plate-like proliferation of basaloid cells and sebaceous lobules, which were broadly attached to the overlying epidermis (H&E, ×12.5). (B) Mature sebaceous cells presenting as small clusters and lobules, and keratin-filled cystic structures were observed (H&E, ×400). (C) Some sebaceous cells stained positive for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA); such cells were located principally in the central regions of the lobules (anti-EMA, ×400).
