Abstract
We compared the patterns of keratin 10 (K10) and keratin 17 (K17) expression in epidermoid cysts, trichilemmal cysts, eruptive vellus hair cysts, and steatocystoma multiplex. Epidermoid cysts expressed K10 and eruptive vellus hair cysts expressed K17, whereas trichilemmal cysts and steatocystoma multiplex showed expression of both K10 and K17. Our findings support the opinion that eruptive vellus hair cysts, which stained negative for K10, and steatocystoma multiplex are distinct entities and not variants of one disorder.
