Definition
A rare benign adnexal tumor that exhibits differentiation towards the follicular isthmus epithelium. It arises from the skin of the face and neck, and presents as multiple and, less often, solitary papules that are arranged in plaques. Morphologically, it is composed of anastomosing cords of pale epithelial cells. The cords are arranged horizontally in a fibrovascular stroma. At the periphery of the cords, small infundibular cysts are present.

Key figures
Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".
No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
