Abstract

Brooke-Spiegler syndrome (BSS) includes the combination of spiradenomas, cylindromas, and trichoepitheliomas. It has been postulated that BSS results from defects in the regulation of putative stem cells of the folliculosebaceous-apocrine unit. This follicular dysregulation may give rise to 3 different genodermatoses: familial cylindromatosis (FC), multiple familial trichoepithelioma (MFT), or the classic triad of BSS.
