    Abstract:
    The authors present a case of Favre-Racouchot syndrome (elastoidosis nodularis cystica et comedonica) in a male mason aged 65, associated with nodular-ulcerative type of basocellular skin neoplasm and seboroic keratosis of the irritative type. A special reference is given to nodular cystic elastoidosis (NCE) with concurrent numerous skin changes characteristic for chronic actinic skin lesions which were clinically evidenced. An objective examination of the patient revealed the presence of multiple follicular comedones, black in colour, the size of a pinhead, and of yellowish follicular papulas, 2-5 mm in size, of solid consistency, on the top of which is a formation similar to comedone. These eflorescences are densely disseminated in periorbital, zygomatic and temporal regions of the face, sparsely on the nose, forehead and preauricularly. In other regions of the face and neck other manifestations of chronic actinic skin lesions with characteristics of "citrine skin", cutis rhomboidalis nuchae and elastoma Dubreuilh are present as wall. In the right nasolabial furrow a clearly edged tumefaction, 1.2 x 0.8 cm, which belongs to the nodular-ulcerative type of basocellular skin neoplasm is seen. Seboroic keratosis of the irritative type was observed on the skin in the middle of the upper lip was histologically verified.
