Chest extractions! Butter steatomas imbedded under the skin removed. See the sacs and contents. Mr. PopZit 270326

This patient has steatocystoma multiplex. I have shared his moles on his arms previously (video link below). Thanks to my patient for sharing his procedures. Steatocystomas are characterized by multiple, epithelial-lined, sebum-filled, dermal cysts that have sebaceous glands within the cyst walls. They can happen sporadically or in an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. They can be 1-2 mm up to several centimeters across. The sacs do not always have to be removed; sometimes the body will break them down and reabsorb them once the contents have been removed. They can also be cauterized to destroy them.
