Combinations with hypertrichosis and focal hyperhidrosis, as well as a depigmentosus and spilus n evus have been described (Yamamoto T et al. 2017). S.a.under Hamartoma, eccrines.

HistologyThis section has been translated automatically.

In the middle dermis lobularly grouped sweat glands and glandular ducts with eccrine and apocrine differentiation in close mixture with capillary and cavernous dilated vessels. Hyperplastic epidermis. If the hamartoma is found outside the inguinal skin, immature hair follicles may still be involved in this complex nevus.
