Figure

• 

  Fig. 1 (A) Linearly and unilaterally distributed grouped skin to erythematous papules with variable size on right shoulder. (B) Close-up view, well demarcated grouped tiny papules with central black pore and large erythematous papule (1 cm in diameter).

• 

  Fig. 2 (A) Epidermal cyst is lined with stratified squamous epithelium that contains a granular layer. Older cysts may exhibit calcification (H&E, ×40). (B) Dense lymphocyte-dominant inflammatory response may be present in the cysts that have ruptured. Laminated keratin contents are noted inside the cyst (H&E, ×200).
