This review provides an overview of the etiology, presentation, and diagnosis of steatocystomas, including subtypes and complications, while detailing their history, epidemiology, and management strategies.

This study found higher mean zinc levels in the hair of cystic fibrosis patients with growth retardation compared to those with normal growth.

This case report describes a 27-year-old woman who developed an epidermoid cyst in the left parotid gland following botulinum toxin injections, which was successfully treated with surgical removal.

In this study, sweat duct differentiation was found to be a rare feature in trichilemmal cysts, occurring in only 0.97% of cases, and was likely under recognized.

This study identified a high-risk allele in the PLCD1 gene associated with hereditary trichilemmal cyst formation, proposing a monoallelic two-hit mechanism as the underlying genetic pathogenesis.

This study found that sphynx cats exhibit hair follicle dysplasia with abnormal hair shaft production, but without a reduction in the number of follicles, similar to murine KRT 71 mutants.

This case study found that a skin lesion in a Samoyed dog did not match any single known follicular cyst or neoplasm type described in the literature.

This case report describes a rare instance of virilizing androgen production due to an ovarian serous cystadenoma in a 59-year-old woman, with testosterone levels normalizing after its removal.

Cold waving solutions quickly reduce cystine to cysteine in hair.

This study reports a case of chylous peritonitis due to acute pancreatitis diagnosed intraoperatively in a 23-year-old man presenting with abdominal pain and milky-like fluid effusion.

This study reports that fenugreek seed extract (Furocyst®) improved body weight, ovarian cysts, ovary size, hair growth, and menstrual regularity in women with PCOS, indicating its potential as an effective phytotherapeutic option for managing the condition.

This case report details the occurrence of alopecic scalp cysts in a young female following three weeks of isotretinoin treatment for acne, highlighting a potential side effect for clinicians to recognize.

This study developed an advanced HPLC-ESI-ion trap MS(n) method for the structural identification of cyclosporin A analogs CyA and CyC and reported the first MS(n)-aided identification of a new CyA analog.

This study found that cystatin M/E strongly inhibits human cathepsin V and cathepsin L via distinct non-overlapping sites, suggesting an important role in human epidermal differentiation and hair follicle morphogenesis.

This study found that cysteic acid generation during hair bleaching is diffusion-controlled, increasing with the square root of bleaching time, in both cuticles and cortex of human hair fibers.

This case study reports a rare instance of mucinous cystadenoma causing severe virilization in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting a possible link with rapidly progressive hyperandrogenism.

In this study, cystaselenonine treatment in mice resulted in hair loss limited to older growing hairs and delayed regrowth, while also causing temporary weight loss.

This study describes five patients whose cystic fibrosis was initially indicated by a rash associated with protein-energy malnutrition, highlighting the importance of early symptom recognition for timely diagnosis and treatment.

Cylindromas likely originate from hair follicle stem cells, not sweat glands.

In this case study, a 69-year-old male with a neck swelling was diagnosed with a trichilemmal cyst, highlighting the importance of complete surgical excision for lesions with proliferative or malignant potential.

This report presents a case of molluscum contagiosum virus infection within an epidermoid cyst in a 13-year-old on long-term steroid treatment, highlighting its rare occurrence and need for histological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This article reviews the role of sulfhydryl compounds, particularly cystine, in sulfur metabolism and the physiology of skin in both normal and pathological conditions, reporting no new findings.

A woman had 13 non-cancerous cysts on her scalp successfully removed in one surgery.

This case report describes a 32-year-old man with therapy-resistant acneiform eruptions later diagnosed as vellus hair cysts, emphasizing the condition as a potential diagnostic consideration in similar cases.
