Cutaneous cylindromas are rare, slow-growing adnexal tumors commonly found on the capillitium or face. When located on the capillitium, they can cluster together, forming a headgear-like structure that gives the characteristic "turban" appearance. Brooke-Spiegler syndrome, an autosomal dominant condition, is typically benign, though malignant transformation can occur.

Article Synopsis
  • Autosomal dominant skin disorders can exhibit pronounced mosaic involvement in neonates, stemming from early loss of heterozygosity in the embryo shortly after fertilization.
  • Some syndromes, like Brooke-Spiegler and Hornstein-Knickenberg, show early-onset symptoms that can foreshadow later, more widespread manifestations of the disorder.
  • Conditions like glomangiomatosis and Darier disease demonstrate that neonatal mosaic lesions can be early indicators of nonsegmental skin issues emerging much later in life.
