Abstract
Familial cylindromatosis (turban tumor syndrome) is a very rare neoplasm originating from eccrine or apocrine glands. It is an autosomal dominant condition, characterized by multiple cylindromas commonly presenting over face or scalp. We report a case of familial cylindromatosis diagnosed on the basis of clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological findings in a 70-year-old female. The case is reported due to its rare occurrence in Indian scenario.
